Summary: Comments from the Author, MaryAnn F. Kohl
Comment: Math is in art, and art in math. It doesn't have to be a mystery anymore!! :o) These math-art projects are unique and new, and also can be enjoyed as art ideas without relating them to math concepts. As a former teacher, I found math could be daunting for many adults. With this book, it doesn't have to be anything more than an exploration of wonderful art projects. The concepts are for young children, but the art is for anyone of any age. I especially love the projects in this book for truly imaginative creativity. Some great group projects too. These are some of my very favorite art ideas to do with kids because they are so unusual. The math concepts are just part of the recipe!

Summary: Disappointing
Comment: I was a little disappointed in this book. Family Math and Peggy Kaye's Games for Math cover similar territory in a much better way. The activities in those books are more fun and the authors do a better job of explaining what skills kids will learn from doing the activities. There are a half dozen or so projects I will try, but most of them don't seem worth the effort.

Summary: Math is Beautiful?
Comment: My kids were delighted to find out that math is beautiful! The projects in this book are all art ideas that incorporate a strong math concept. I especially like how innovative and new the ideas are...very open and free process projects. I can see that these projects could be used with all ages, but the math concepts are really for younger kids. Excellent book, and what a unique approach to art! You can count on art (get it, COUNT on art?).
