Hide-and-Seek Numbers

by Anne Bertier
An imaginative game with 40 "number" cards, 2 game boards and one book. Let yourself be guided by the figures suggested in the book or make up your own! The aim of the game is to get caught, to rediscover familiar signs that one thought one knew so well. Going further in her research on signs -numbers or letters-, Anne Bertier creates here a game for all, to play alone or with others. The book inspired an exhibition presented at the Cité des Sciences et de l'Industrie in Paris.

That book

"That book" represents all the books imaginable and all those one would like to read: a book for grown-ups, a book for little ones, a book to be shared, a book to be scared... and a book for you!
