Abe loves invesTigating, looking for clues and hidden treasure. One day he finds an old exercise book which doesn't look very interesting, especially as none of it makes much sense. "Here Dad, what's this book saying? What's cotan - I thought it was spelled 'cotton'." His Dad looks at it for a second and replies "Oh that's my missing school trigonometry book. Where did you find it?", he asks, looking delighted. "I found it in the attic", replies Abe. Just then Mum calls out "Lunch time. We have pitta breads for lunch with falafels or cheese." Dad puts the trig book with the others and they all head for the dining table. "I learned today that Lagos in Nigeria is the titan of cities in Africa having an estimated population of about 9 million", remarks Mum. Abe and Dad stop eating. "Why do you say that?", asked Dad. Mum just shrugs her shoulders; they get back to eating lunch.
