Fazi's World

Publisher Marketing: An illustrated STEM-based rhyming story for kids (aged 9 to 99) set in ancient Egypt and Sudan about 2000 years ago, where Young Fazi, who works a Nile camel train, notices that shadows North and south of Swenett (Aswan) are cast in opposite directions in mid-summer, and reasons that the surface of his world might be curved, or even round like the moon, and given this hypothesis, sets out, using angles and fractions, to work out exactly how long his camel-route is compared to what would be the total distance around the entire world.
