Jump, Kangaroo, Jump!

(3) K-3 MathStart series. Illustrated by Kevin O'Malley. During a field day, a group of twelve Australian animal campers splits into halves for a tug of war, thirds for a swim meet, and fourths for a canoe race. The simple story line presents a real-world application of fractions and division, neatly reinforced by O'Malley's expressive illustrations. Related activities are suggested.
