I Can Multiply

Anna Nilsen. Kingfisher, $9.95 (26pp) ISBN 978-0-7534-5414-5

Anna Nilsen's I Can Multiply uses colorful cartoon-style visuals to teach basic mathematical concepts. However, in Pack 3, designed to teach patterns and number sequences, young learners may be confused when the author attempts to use four-legged pigs to teach counting by two's. Permanently attached to the spiral binding, the first two sets of flip cards place pictures that provide answers on the backs of each equation. Perky graphics and the nifty Velcro-sealed cover make this a fun supplement for adults and children to share at home. (Sept.)
