Synopses & Reviews
Elephants, rabbits, and birds shop in this funny grocery store. Can you guess what the little rabbit wants more of? Munchy, crunchy carrots, of course! And fewer of? Squirmy worms and chewy peanuts (yuck!). So why is his mother buying all those cans of worms?
Synopsis
The MathStart series has sold over 1.5 million copies and combines math with fun stories that have real-life applications. In this Level One MathStart, children learn to formulate addition and subtraction equations and identify "more," "fewer," and "the same." This picture book is also an excellent choice to share during homeschooling, in particular for children ages 4 to 6. It's a fun way to learn to read and as a supplement for activity books for children.
