Can You Count to a Googol?

An excellent book for the math or number-lover! It's fun and teaches the concept of multiplying by 10 to the nth-degree.

Wonderfully entertaining book of math and numbers! it truly inspires the imagination. I highly recommend it. You'll enjoy it too! Learning made fun!

I read this book to my son and daughter when they were 6 and 4 years old. They were, at the time, obsessed with big numbers, like billions, trillions, and more. They were fascinated with the concept of the number One Google, and this book's fun and detailed visuals were the perfect "food" to feed their hunger for numbers. A must-read for exploring math with your curious children.

My 5 year old son is fascinated by this book! He loves science and nature, and really enjoys all of the Robert Wells books we have (I plan to order the rest asap). The thing I appreciate most about this book is that my son doesn't even realize he's learning, and walks around talking about billions and trillions and googols in a far more sophisticated manner than I ever did as a 5 year old. Wells doesn't dumb things down and, like the original Magic School Bus series, crams a whole lot of factual information into an entertaining children's book. Terrific read for your child!
