My children (ages 6 and 4) and I enjoy most of the Stuart J. Murphy Math Start books that we have read. In each one there is a single math concept taught in the format of a read aloud book.In this one, a grandfather is taking his 5 grandchildren to the Safari Park on opening day. He has 100 tickets, but one child loses his. The others have to share one ride apiece with him.The story line is good. The pictures are cute and well-illustrated. The math concept taught here is finding an unknown for addition/subtraction facts.My children and I re-read all the books we own over and over. The children especially like Bigger, Better, Best! (MathStart 2) and Give Me Half! (MathStart 2) Perhaps the reason they like those is that the story line is about siblings interactions. But truthfully, we like all of them and read them on a regular basis.
Teaches math as the characters spend their tickets at an amusement park. Very cute illustrations.Stuart J. Murphy throws in a bit of good values training -- the other kids in the family must help the child who lost his tickets, and in the end he helps them back.Great book -- does what you want a math reader to do (teach a little math). Best of all -- it's entertaining and they re-read it.This book is a winner.
The material in the book was too basic and not worth the almost $10 (including shipping) that I paid for it. I did not the return it because my daughter said my grandson had liked reading it.
Good book
thanks
