Elementary Statistics: Picturing the World in Statistical Style is a book that may have many students asking, "What is this about?" This book provides a statistical method of visualizing the world and teaching kids how to understand patterns, relationships, averages and trends. The book shows different ways to present data and different ways to interpret them. It even includes some fun ways to visualize the figures presented.

The illustrations in the book are done in a very simple and easy to understand way that can even make elementary students curious to learn more.

Every color represents a different country and the size of each country can be easily seen from a distance.

It then goes into explaining how to use basic statistical methods in order to get reliable data.
