Nature's repeating patterns, better known as fractals can be quantified mathematically, while also being beautiful and universal and explain much about how things grow.

Here is an elegant introduction to fractals through natural examples that can be seen in parks, rivers, and our very own back garden.

This book includes the following insights on how to:

Demystify maths and how it applies to everyday life
Inspire budding mathematicians
Motivate visual learners through inviting text and page designs
Understand the role mathematics plays in nature and the world around us

Young readers will be fascinated to learn that broccoli florets are fractals―just like mountain ranges, river systems, and trees―and will share in the wonder of math as it is reflected in the world around us.

Mysterious Patterns is an exciting interdisciplinary introduction to repeating patterns, perfect for any elementary school classroom or library.
