If you take five squares of the same size and join them edge to edge, the resulting shape is called a Pentomino. There are 12 different pentominoes and the number of patterns you can make with them is very large. This book shows some of the possibilities, poses some problems and suggests fruitful lines of investigation. Complete with sets of pentominoes in two colours to cut out and an envelope in which to keep them. Rainbow Pentominoes Sturdy and robust for classroom use, these six complete sets of pentominoes in six different colours are an ideal resource for work on pentominoes. They come packed into a strong drum. Tangrams-330 Puzzles
Ronald Read
A fine collection of designs and diagrams which can be created with the normal set of 7-piece tangrams. Complete with solutions. Wooden Tangrams
This ancient Chinese puzzle is the opposite of a modern jig-saw. For the aim is not to find the one correct position for each piece, but to generate as many interesting shapes as possible from them. This set of seven tangram shapes is made in hardwood.
Wooden Pentacubes
A hardwood set of twelve pieces comprising all the possible single layer combinations of five connected cubes, usually known as pentominoes. It provides an enormous range of two and three-dimensional puzzling.

Pages: 272
Publisher/Date: Scholastic
ISBN: 0439372941
Age Levels: 9-12 (and up)
Chasing Vermeer begins with this note from the author: A set of pentominoes is a mathematical tool consisting of twelve pieces . . . Pentominoes are used by mathematicians around the word to explore ideas about geometry and numbers . . . With a little practice, they can be used as puzzle pieces and put together into thousands of different rectangles of many sizes and shapes . . . This is an apt description of the book. Chasing Vermeer The story is set in Chicago and the main characters are sixth-grade intellectuals Petra Andalee and Calder Pillay. The mystery is set into motion when Ms. Hussey, their non-conventional teacher, takes her students to an art museum to look for paintings containing written communications. Unexplainable occurrences and coincidences begin to swirl through the plot like falling leaves. As Petra and Calder use their imaginations and intuition to try to fit these together, a Vermeer painting, A Lady Writing
