Book Reviews of A Cloak For The Dreamer (Brainy Day Books)

Book Review: Great book for math teachers!
Summary: 5 Stars

This book is a wonderful supplement to elementary geometry lessons. I've used this story for several years with my 4th graders to help children understand circles, rectangles, triangles, and hexagons. We even make our own cloaks out of construction paper when finished reading. I can see where older students would enjoy it as well.

Summary of A Cloak For The Dreamer (Brainy Day Books)

In an entertaining introduction to the concept of geometry, a tailor's son attempts to create a cloak with only circles, with unfortunate results, and then works with his brothers to find a shape that works.
