Predstav si svet bez čísel. Ako by sme si vypýtali tri kopčeky zmrzliny? Prečo má vlastne minúta 60 sekúnd, a nie 100? Kde sa vzala nula a akému jazyku rozumejú počítače? Naprieč storočiami sa ľudia snažili prísť na rôzne spôsoby ako použiť čísla, aby sme mohli lepšie porozumieť svetu navôkol, stavať mestá, nájsť si nový domov a tak ďalej. Nechajte sa vtiahnuť do príbehu tohto prelomového objavu prostredníctvom ilustrovanej knihy (nielen) pre deti, pretože Čísla je zábavná kniha, ktorá vám pomôže uvedomiť si, aké fascinujúce a zábavné môžu čísla byť. 1, 2, 3, štart!

A tak je na čase přestat vyhazovat staré ponožky, použité dárkové balicí papíry nebo plastové lahve – vytvořte z nich originální dárky a vychytávky, co se šiknou!
