Description
Raewyn Caisley's gentle text and Gabriel Evan's timeless illustrations conjoin to celebrate the beauty of maths and friendship, hand in hand.
From the parallel lines of moonlight pouring through her bedroom blinds, to counting daisy petals in the garden, Maddie adores maths. If only she had a friend who marvelled at it as she does. Then Dad takes Maddie, along with her new classmate Priya, to the observatory where the unfathomable numbers of stars take their breath away.
