Anno's U.S.A.
Mitsumasa Anno
Philomel, 1983
Classic picture book for all ages
Anno's illustrations are simple and beautiful. I grew up with this book, checking it out of the library again and again. My mother and I still enjoy looking at everything that Anno manages to get into so few pages. You will always find something new if you have ...

A lovely book on counting and factorials
This picture book is easy to read, and presents two math concepts: the first is counting to ten. The second is factorials: If there are three kingdoms in two countries on one island, then how many kingdoms are there altogether?
Imagining some of the silly scenes ...

Mitsumasa Anno
Putnam Juvenile, 1997
evocative, gentle beauty for young and old
As in other Anno works, an anonymous Everyman is seen in each two-page textless illustration. In this book, the traveler begins his trek alone, buys a horse and rides through progressively more populated scenes -- magnificent scenes, filled with literary and artistic ...

Anno's Counting Book
HarperTrophy, 1986
Wonderful book
I have bought numerous copies of this book to give to the children of relatives and friends. I got my first copy of it when my son (now 27) was small, and he loved it. I have one copy that I keep at home for myself, though I have no grandchildren yet--the pictures ...

Mitsumasa Anno
Putnam Juvenile, 1999
Creative Math Lesson
Anno's books are great for teaching fun math lessons. I readthe book to my sixth graders and had them figure the answers to thequestions as we went. They loved it! They really have to listen carefully, so it makes a great lesson in listening skills as well.

excellent book for all ages
I purchased this book for my 18 year old daughter, who is off to college next year to major in art. Her ambition is to be an illustrator, so I thought it would be inspirational for her. She loves that it features the illustrators of many of her favorite books from when ...

Putnam Juvenile, 1997
Good intentions, poorly done
About me: I helped edit Arthur Engel's Exploring Mathematics With Your Computer and other math books. I looked forward to seeing a book presenting to the very young simple math ideas which are outside the school curriculum. I leave it to librarians and teachers to ...

Anno's Britain
Mitsumasa Anno
Philomel, 1985
evocative, beautiful wordless book
I'd never had much to do with wordless books, but you cannot see one of Mitsumasa Anno's beautiful works without becoming an enthusiastic devotee of the genre in general, and Anno in particular. It's too bad these books are out-of-print -- at least one should be in ...

Before I had children, I wouldn't have appreciated the value of wordless books, but you cannot see one of Mitsumasa Anno's beautiful works without becoming an enthusiastic devotee of the genre in general, and Anno in particular. It is astonishing that these are ...

Anno's Hat Tricks
Akihiro Nozaki
Harcourt, 1993
A clever and challenging way to teach math concepts
As a preservice teacher, I used this book to write a lesson plan in mathematics for the elementary school level. This book even boggled my mind at times! Nozaki and Anno use hat "tricks" to develop binary logic and teach children the process of elimination. Kids ...
