Pi Day 2025

It's Pi Day (3.14)! We're always in the market for a good book about math...and pie (yum!), so we're particularly excited this year to feature Emergency Quarters by Carlos Matias, illus. by Gracey Zhang (Tegen/HarperCollins) featuring a math lesson AND empanada hand pies.

For more mouthwatering reading options about pie, see our recent Guide review of The Pie Reports by Hayley Lowe (Orca), and explore the Guide/Reviews Database subject Pies
