A Million Dots

48 pp. | Simon | July, 2006 | Trade ISBN 0-689-85824-8 $16.95
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Mike Reed. Each page shows many thousands of small dots laid out over digital art so that at the end of the book readers have seen a million. Although the methodology is confusing, Clements presents interesting facts (there are more than three hundred thousand kinds of beetles), and Reed's clever pictures effectively relay the scope of large numbers.
