Sir
Cumference and
the Isle of Immeter
by Cindy Neuschwander
illustrated by Wayne Geehan
Sir Cumference and the Isle of Immeter is another medieval geometry adventure, this time teaching the concepts of area and perimeter.
Radius and his intrepid cousin Per travel to the Isle of Immeter to tame the sea serpent and help bring peace to the area. To do so, they must use a series of geometry formulas about finding the area and perimeter of quadrilaterals and circles.
As with the other books in the series, this book is best when read to students who are familiar with finding area and perimeter, so that they can solve the quest along with Radius.
