This is a book that is good on so many levels --+ goal setting+ team work+ tallying+ subtractionThere is merit in the story itself -- a group works together to meet a goal. And there is real math value -- the double-digit subtraction is clear to understand and presented in several formats -- verbal (as you say the subtraction aloud), visual (as you see the subtraction problem solved) and as part of the text.This book is a keeper.

Great book for my 2nd graders to understand and learn subtraction. This book puts it down to their level using what they like especially boys using sharks and other sea creatures.

We like reading about swimming, there are not too many swimming books and the story makes the math practical and fun,

One of the better concept books in the market place for teaching and understanding subtraction.
