Yet another book seemingly designed by someone who had only had book covers described to him once.

The title, subtitle, byline, and art are all plain white text. Its design is at least consistent.
The magic stone is a piece of chalk. Which would have formed long enough ago to be considered ancient I guess. But where’s the magic?
The magic is apparently
Ra(s)->R^2
where
s is at least one of { apple, cherry, lemon, … }
and
Ra = bake at 400 degrees for 30 minutes.
Mmmm. Pi.
Playing with the present… as opposed to playing with the box it came in?
Yes! The box can become a moon rocket, or submarine, or pirate ship, more imaginative than the dull present.
I know which one my cat would prefer.
The poster cover for how not to design a cover. In fact, this looks more like a poster than a book cover. A poster for math geeks and chalk dust huffers, and ideally, people who are both.
