Fun with Roman Numerals

32 pp. | Holiday | September, 2008 | Trade ISBN 978-0-8234-2060-5 $16.95
(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Edward, III Miller. This solid introduction to Roman numerals explains each symbol's value and describes how the ancient number system is still used today (for chapter numbers, on clock faces, etc.). Clear examples show readers how to write numbers with Roman numerals, and a coin-based activity (penny = I, nickel = V) provides additional practice. Computer-generated illustrations of Roman arches, centurions, and chariots command attention.
