Seeing the future across the curve of time, travelers from another world (one who loves to talk in rhyme), a magical hat that acts as transport and can expand to easily fit five people, an ancient wizard and a special secret.
An adventure through time and space. Ten year old Flor Bernoulli of Brooklyn, New York, has to save the world and the life of a new found friend. Aided by Dr. Pi, a pie-baking wizard thousands of years old, a nosy neighbor Mrs. Plump (who doesn’t like sugar, “just tea and toast please”) and a pair of twin men from another world, Mr. It and Mr. Bit. Flor has to protect a singular cosmic fire that keeps nature in balance throughout the universe
Dr. Pi explains the spiral to Flor: “It gets bigger and bigger without changing its shape at all.” And he reveals to her that, “…we are all like the Spiral. Though we change and grow and learn through life, something deep in us remains the same. Just like the Spiral, which gets bigger and bigger, but never changes its proportions. And so, we too are always changed, and ever the same.”
An interesting way to bring mathematical concepts into the literary realm.
