Publisher's Description of Math in Nature 1: Counting on Fall

As young readers journey into the natural world, they will discover that numbers, patterns, shapes -- and much more! -- can be found by observing everyday plants and animals. What if animals and plants knew math, just like you? Would leaves fall in patterns? Would whales enter a race? In Counting on Fall, the first title in the four-book Math in Nature series by award-winning author Lizann Flatt, nature comes to life to help children grasp concepts of number sense and numeration. The engaging "What if?" format of this informational picture book is sure to delight children in Grades K to 2.

Each of the four books in the Math in Nature series covers one season of the year and one area of math curriculum. Colorful, cut-paper collage art evokes the natural world, while two levels of text -- one a lyrical story, the other asking children to problem-solve -- bring the reader to a full understanding of the math concept being covered.

Category Description for Math In Nature Series

Glorious, vibrant, papercut illustrations fill these pages, making you and your child slow down on this "nature walk" through all the seasons, environments, and continents. Each book highlights a season and a math concept. Pages are pleasantly jam-packed with animals and math to spy, with a few questions providing thought-provoking math discussions. Which animal is smallest? Can you find cones? How do you know when winter ends? A few pages at book's end teach about the nature items highlighted. 8 ½"x 10 ½", 32 pgs. ~ Ruth
