And, it's true, many of them do. But Paul Erdos never followed the usual path. At the age of four, he could ask you when you were born and then calculate the number of seconds you had been alive in his head. But he didn't learn to butter his own bread until he turned twenty. Instead, he traveled around the world, from one mathematician to the next, collaborating on an astonishing number of publications. With a simple, lyrical text and richly layered illustrations, this is a beautiful introduction to the world of math and a fascinating look at the unique character traits that made Uncle Paul a great man. \u003cbr\u003eA \u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e Best Book of 2013 A \u003ci\u003eNew York Times Book Review \u003c\/i\u003eNotable Children's Book of 2013\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDeborah Heiligman\u003c\/b\u003e has written numerous books for young readers, including \u003ci\u003eCharles and Emma: \u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eThe Darwins' Leap of Faith, \u003c\/i\u003e a National Book Award finalist.
