. Mar. 2025. 48p. Tr $18.99. ISBN 9781536229479. COPY ISBN Gr 1-4–Shapes that repeat and fit without gaps or overlaps are a seemingly simple jigsaw puzzle problem that hide an even bigger math problem. Not all shapes tessellate, fitting together by repetition, and the puzzle of having a pentagon tessellate has been a conundrum since ancient times. The story approaches the explanation of this complex math problem through a biography of housewife Marjorie Rice and her fascination with shapes.

If you’re in the #Atlanta area this coming Friday, and you’re an Ethan Hawke and/or Flannery O’Connor fan, check out this screening of the Hawke-directed O’Connor biopic, Wildcat, at the @TaraTheatre. @OscopeLabs https://t.co/gm8vJw53oI
