Equal Shmequal

by Virginia L. Kroll

Book Overview

Mouse and her friends want to play tug-of-war, but they'll need to use some everyday math to figure out how to make teams that are equal. As Mouse looks at various solutions she is not sure what it means to be equal. Nothing works until Mouse starts to think about it mathematically and divides the teams based on weight. Wonderful illustrations capture Mouse and her animal friends from whiskers to tails as they work to measure and equalize their teams...

Great Book! Used for math class.

This is a terrific book! The 3rd grade math teacher at our private school uses this book in her class. Well worth the money.

Wonderful book!

This is a great way to explain the concept of equality to young children. It is entertaining and informative. It should be part of the library in all K-3 classes.
