Excerpts from the collection of mathematical fairy tales are as follows:

1. Mathematics is a magician who turns infinite possibilities into infinite realities. In the world of mathematics, every problem is a puzzle, waiting for our exploration and solution.

2. Mathematics is a dreamy picture, where numbers and shapes are intertwined to create beautiful pictures. Folk mathematics is like a bright key, unlocking the door to our exploration of the truth of the universe.

3. The charm of mathematics lies in its thoughtfulness, which generates infinite sparks in our thinking. Mathematics is not only an intellectual gymnastics, but also a source of inspiration, stimulating our creativity and imagination.

4. In the world of mathematics, every formula is a poem and every theorem is a story. Mathematics is art, aesthetics, and the language through which we communicate with the universe.

Editor's recommendation

The Reading Stories to Learn Mathematics series of books are different from the previously published collections of mathematics stories and fairy tales by Professor Li Yupei. In addition to the function of "reading stories", this series of books also has the function of "learning mathematics".

This set of books is aimed at the mathematical knowledge and thinking ability of readers at different stages of primary school. From the popular mathematical story creations of Professor Li Yupei*, this set of books is selected and suitable for low, middle and senior primary school readers. content.

It also summarizes mathematical knowledge points by combining typical questions and solutions in mathematics learning, and completes them with full-color illustrations (pinyin is also included in lower grades), compiled into a complete set of three books. This book is a sub-volume of "Li Minpei Mathematical Fairy Tale Collection".
