Ben Franklin and the Magic Squares (Step Into Reading: A Step 4 Book)

by Frank Murphy and Richard Walz

Ben Franklin and the Magic Squares (Step Into Reading: A Step 4 Book) Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

A funny, entertaining introduction to Ben Franklin and his many inventions, including the story of how he created the "magic square." A magic square is a box of nine numbers arranged so that any line of three numbers adds up to the same number, including on the diagonal! Teachers and kids will love finding out about this popular teaching tool that is still used in elementary schools today!

Review:

"[T]he cartoonish illustrations capture the spirit of the narrative." Hornbook Guide to Children

Review:

"The engaging, informal style of the writing and the colorful, cartoonlike illustrations make this a playful but solid choice for introducing young readers to Franklin and to magic squares." Booklist
