Great book

Not an easy read aloud for a class.

My first grader loved this book. It reinforced fraction concepts she's learning at school in a fun, non-worksheet way. There are plenty of examples of different fraction sizes all in one book, which I really appreciated. We read 1-2 chapters at a time and finished the book over several days so that she wouldn't get tired of it. The reading level is 2.1, so some first graders and many second graders can read it themselves. My daughter loved reading it to me.

I tutor ESL and am working on math with a 4th grade intermediate-level English Language Learner. She "hates" math but loves books. From the get-go, she asked what the word "fraction" and the word "action" meant, so we had a lot to cover. By the end, she loved this book and asked to take it home. The story is almost comic-book style with paneled pictures. Every few pages there is a math problem which felt more like an action-item to do (so it was great for tutoring/teaching). My student laughed during the book and I was so glad to find a way to teach math to my bookworm student in a fun way that actually taught her fractions in a way she didn't immediately resist.

This book was read to a group of 2nd graders. The book had great character pictures which the kids enjoyed and the clever writing was enjoyed by the children as well. The math concepts that where introduced where a bit over the kids heads. I asked a few students if they understood what was going on mathimatically and they understood the simpler stories told. So if your a teacher I feel this book would be a great way to accompany a classroom lesson related to fractions.

Good confition

this book vocabulary is easy to understand but the placement of the words in the book can make the young student confused.pictures are great and are big.The concepts of fractions are presented in a happy picture manner.This book has five fraction problems with defferent senerios.
