I love these Wooden Books. Every one a treasure, an adventure, and something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue. It would be hard to find a better revelation on the medieval mind than discussing the relative size of the earth and moon as 11:3 and therefore a circle of radius equal to the earth+moon radius would have a circumference equal to the perimeter of a square with sides equal to the diameter of earth.
