55. Fascinating Fibonaccis: Mystery of Magic in Numbers, Trudi H. Garland, Dale Seymour Publications, 1987
This is an excellent reference for a lesson plan on the natural functions of mathematics. It gives a good overview of the so-called Fibonacci numbers. Most importantly, It documents the fact that ancient African mathematicians was cognizant of the transcendental function, know by the Greek letter phi, which equals 1.618.... It was called the golden ratio in Europe during its emergence from the Dark Ages.
