Patterns are fascinating! They can be so beautiful that people come from all over the world to see them, or so familiar you hardly notice them. They appear everywhere: beehives, dinner plates, even the bottoms of your shoes!
With stunning photographs that show diverse examples from nature and artwork around the world, Bruce Goldstone reveals the secrets behind patterns, and gives you some fun ideas for making your own.
"This colorful book challenges readers to recognize patterns and to notice how they differ from one another . . . A useful, attractive introduction to patterns."
Booklist
"Goldstone gives a thorough primer on the many forms patterns can take, the ways they are constructed, and the places-both natural and manmade-they can be found.... Readers will be hard pressed not to search for patterns everywhere they look after finishing this one."
Publishers Weekly
"With crisply reproduced pictures...that are as beautiful as they are effective, this successful math lesson doubles as an aesthetic pleasure."
