Using Math in the real world
Anno's Magic Seeds is yet another book written by Mitsumasa Anno that integrates literature with mathematics. This book is a useful tool for teachers attempting to provide a connection of math in the real world for their students.

A major disappointment
Love Mitsumasa Anno's other books, but the wonderful intricate drawings are missing from this book, and the story is easily 60% too long, especially for children.

Anno's Magic Seeds is yet another book written by Mitsumasa Anno that integrates literature with mathematics. This book is a useful tool for teachers attempting to provide a connection of math in the real world for their students. The story is enchanting and it certainly proved to be a creative way for beginning a math lesson- atleast it was for my 4th graders! I highly recommend this or any of Anno's books to stimulate children's interest in mathematics!

Smart book for smart kids,

This review is from: Anno's Magic Seeds (Picture Books) (Paperback)
Deceptively simple in the beginning, this story builds in complexity and excitement from start to finish. It is an intelligent story made exciting through mathematics. Anno's Magic Seeds is a clever introduction to the concept of investing toward the future. As always, the illustrations are lovely.
5.0 out of 5 stars
Enjoyable math tale & more,

It can be challenging to find literature that works in a math class, but this one does. Aside from the math I use it to teach students about desire (Jack deciding he wanted more than the two seeds) and the sacrifices we often will need to make if we really want something different for ourselves.

Creative Math Lesson,
By Kathy Goebel (Wichita, KS) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Anno's Magic Seeds (Picture Books) (Paperback)
Anno's books are great for teaching fun math lessons. I readthe book to my sixth graders and had them figure the answers to thequestions as we went. They loved it! They really have to listen carefully, so it makes a great lesson in listening skills as well.

I give it a 3.5,
This review is from: Anno's Magic Seeds (Hardcover)
Sure, this book is real cute, but it is missing something. It is strange, and my nephew wasn't thrilled by it. I bought it for his because of his obsession with seeds. It is no run of the mill book, but it could do better
