Northshire Manchester: Special Story Time with Stephen Swinburne

The acclaimed children’s book author will return to our Manchester store to share his two newest picture books - Big Truck Super Wash and Giraffe Math - in what’s sure to be a rollicking good time!

Giraffe Math is a picture book that introduces math concepts through the artful sharing of giraffe facts, for fans of Ten Magic Butterflies and Zero the Hero. Twiga the giraffe introduces young readers to fascinating facts about giraffes and their relationship to other creatures—all by using math concepts such as measurements, graphs, shapes, word problems, and more. This interactive picture book explores these spectacular animals through a STEM lens as everything from their speed and size to their intricate camouflage patterns (which act as internal air conditioning) and other body characteristics are featured. It’s an in-depth look at the animal kingdom’s most beloved gentle giants.
