FYI,

A NJ librarian was just going through the 2014 Summer Reading Manual and noticed an error on page 147 of the Children's Manual,  under Fibonacci Fun - the number three (3) is missing from the sequence...
                       0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, ...

The next number is found by adding up the two numbers before it.

  *   The 2 is found by adding the two numbers before it (1+1)
  *   Similarly, the 3 is found by adding the two numbers before it (1+2),
  *   And the 5 is (2+3),
  *   and so on!
The formula doesn't work if the three is not there... Just wanted to let you know so you could send out message on all listservs.
