A
GREAT MATH-RELATED PICTURE BOOK!
Ralph
freaks out when Flora picks the thirteenth bean in Bean
Thirteen by Matthew McElligott.
Ralph is sure that thirteen is an unlucky number! Always
the idea-grasshopper, Flora invites April for dinner.
As Flora and Ralph separate the beans into three piles
with four beans each, Ralph is horrified to discover
that the one bean left over is the dreaded "bean
thirteen!" "That's odd," Flora says.
So Flora invites Joe to dinner, too, and begins to make
four piles of three beans each. What do you think happens
next? Keep reading because the conclusion is really
funny!
What
a hysterical introduction to the skills of odd / even
and division!
