Product Information

"For all our obsessive teaching of the basic digits, children are still mostly fascinated with the really big ones, the millions, zillions and gajillions - something this ingenious jumbo-size book delivers"- The New York Times

Andrea Menotti learned about jelly beans and big numbers at the candy-obsessed age of seven. Her parents promised her a special treat when she had refrained from sucking her thumb for three weeks. She chose a bag full of what seemed to be an almost never-ending supply of her favorite sweet, jelly beans. Over the days to come, she paid secret visits to the closet where the bag was hidden and was surprised by how quickly the jelly beans disappeared. She remembers making a note to herself: 'You can never have too many jelly beans.' Andrea Menotti is a parent, a talented author, a former teacher, and a former Chronicle editor. She lives in Ithaca, New York, with her husband, Yancey, and their daughter.
