Adventures in math

Cover of What Will Fit
A review of What Will Fit by Grace Lin

Part of a phenomenal new series of board and picture books, Storytelling Math, What Will Fit follows a little girl at a Farmer’s Market as she looks for the perfect item to fit into her basket. She tries a beet (too small), a zucchini (too tall), and a few other items before finding something that fits perfectly. This installment of the series focuses on spatial sense. Others focus on early geometry, patterns, and other math concepts.

These books tell parents and educators which math concepts are being explored, and provide activities for adults to do with their children on the last pages. Additionally, there is a website reference with even more activities. Highly recommended for ages 3-7.
