Reviews

PreS-Gr 1-Cute monsters are the stars of these singsongy books that introduce numbers up to 20, patterns, shapes, and the concept of more than and less than. Readers will be attracted to the cartoon illustrations, which have bright colors, clean lines, and goofy-looking creatures. The texts are light and humorous at times; after all, these are monsters: "Which bumper car should I choose? More tires on one car are flat. Flat tires make the ride so bumpy. I Li-Li-Li-Like that!" Although these books are not very substantial, students will have fun poring over them. Good for one-on-one sharing to support the topics. α(c) Copyright 2011.
