Tired of
simply reading pages and pages of digits?
Okay, that might be a bit of a stretch, but there are plenty of great
books about pi that actually use words and pictures too! We have listed
some of our favorite pi books below, with links
to pick them up on Amazon.com.
We've read many more than these, and they only make us love pi more. Give
them a try, and keep them on-hand in the classroom for the occasional
curious student.
