How Much is a Million?

Have you ever wondered how much a million
really is? Well, in this 20th anniversary edition of How Much is
a Million, David M. Schwartz gives his readers an idea of just
how much is a million, a billion, and trillion by using a tower of
human kids, by how long it would take to count from one to that number,
how it would fill a goldfish bowl, and the number of pages needed
in order to show that many stars.
I remember books like this from Reading
Rainbow when I was a kid, and going through this one has brought
back all the joys of reading when I was younger. The illustrations
are wonderful, and the information is so easy to understand that
it will boggle your mind just how much a million, a billion, and
a trillion really are. |
