But within that imagination, there is room too for the fantastically real, numbers that are facts of the universe we live in, which soar until they are well beyond any of our own experiences, numbers that are real but can only be imagined as they stretch from the earth to the sun. Fishman doesn’t simplify it, here there are not a zillion stars in the sky, there are figures that are true and amazing. It is quite a wondrous thing to imagine the make-believe, but any child reading this book will conclude that the real magic around them is in every breath, every minute, every life lived, and that they themselves are a wondrous thing.” - \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eKate Beaton, author of King Baby and The Princess and the Pony\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e“It is quite a wondrous thing to imagine the make-believe, but any child reading this book will conclude that the real magic around them is in every breath, every minute, every life lived, and that they themselves are a wondrous thing.” - \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eKate Beaton, author of King Baby and The Princess and the Pony\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e“Huge numbers take on an even bigger scale in Fishman and Greenberg’s insightful, awe-inspiring picture book.
