Rate this book
本书采用了稀奇古怪的提问方式,诸如"一头灰熊身上有多少根毛?""一个喷嚏里有多少个病菌?""一片云里有多少滴雨?""银河系里有多少颗星星?"……然后推演出答案。从容易理解的大数开始,逐步进阶到庞大得不可想象的超大数。旨在引导读者亲近大数,学会大数的读和写,理解大数的量级,引导读者像数学家一样思考,体会"搞数学"的乐趣,在古怪、欢乐的问题中开始一场在大数世界的冒险。

Me gustó mucho. Los datos que da son en verdad emocionantes, ¿es que alguna vez han pensado en los números verdaderamente grandes? Woow.

This is a fun way of introducing big numbers, scientific notation and how to make estimates to children. It could be a great resource when studying space or during some year 5 and 6 Math's lessons! Keen older students may even be able to move on to some of Randall Munroe's work.
