Poetic, rhyming text ("Two flakes play. Four flakes sashay. Eight flakes twirl. Sixteen flakes swirl...") with a mathematical explanation consistently placed on the lower right part of each spread (2 to the fourth power: 2x2x2x2=16) bracket gorgeous snowy scenes. Back matter includes "What is an Exponent?" and an illustrator's note explaining how they made sure every page had the right number of snowflakes.

What a fantastical entry into math concepts! The "power" of snow is the principle of exponential growth (which can be a bit tricky to master). As the flakes multiply the poetry soars and makes everything more memorable.
The illustrations by Bryony Clarkson are clear, brilliantly colorful, and add to the joy of a book that is very interesting.
Well suited for reading WITH someone of any age including ESL, and great for gifting to anyone, but especially to a school or your local public library!

The book is about Niko who loves to draw his world. In this imaginative story he explores the creative process, abstract art, friendship and desire to feel understood.
