This book takes a look at children's literature and uses the genres to motivate students to think and reason mathematically.
Literature provides children ways to use their imagination.
It is this approach to teaching that the book took. This is a counting book that deals with numbers one through ten which engages the students in a math investigation. I would use this book with kindergarten or first graders. The hunter in the book travels through the jungle ready to strike at any moment. All the animals become intrigued and begin to follow the hunter.
