Don't let the title or art fool you! This is a book EVERYONE should read. The provides what infinity really looks like. As a math minor, I thought I had a grip on what infinity is until I read this book. For young readers, they probably wont be able go through the whole book (Which is pointed out in the beginning).

The book brings the reader on an adventure over unimaginably large numbers. It has a few combinatoric problems and at the end it describes a notation for hyperoperations with base 10 such that a number x enclosed in an n-gon is 10[n]x, which is really nice.

The book explores increasingly large numbers in a visually stunning way. I gave the book a five star rating because it makes the concepts of these large numbers more graspable and accessible to the average middle school student.

Coolest math book ever.
