You Can Count on Monsters: The First 100 Numbers and Their Characters

visual math

Libro precioso para descubrir con los peques de casa

It's cool to see the patterns and numbers represented in this way! My kids like to look through it as well. I did sometimes feel a little lost, but that's perhaps just me. It's a good sized, flip through book, and I especially like the way factors are represented. That's what has kept my interest.

Teaching students to see, understand, and connect with numbers deserves a visual component like this. I've used it as a hook for college courses and with middle school students. I'm happy to know it exists! It should be in every school library and in the hands of math teachers everywhere. How do you plan to use this amazing book?

Kids are naturally drawn to monsters, and the images in this book are very cute (not scary at all). The best, though, is the counting content...well done. I've bought several of these over the years for friends who are kinda nerdy--they always love it.
