The Y Tree

The Y Tree is a fun and easy way to introduce children of all ages to fractals. The book nurtures curiosity by using a binary fractal tree to look for patterns, follow rules, and predict what they will see next. Fractal images jump off the book's pages in brilliant, full color. The math in The Y Tree focuses on a simple counting problem-how many Ys are in the tree? Readers are introduced to fractal concepts both in mathematics and in nature. The book and related activities integrate math, art and literacy.
