(4) K-3 Illustrated by Erin E. Hunter. This insect-themed multiplication book features crisp, colorful illustrations, a rhyming text, and eleven equations. The accompanying quatrains, some more effective than others, prompt readers to solve questions: "Six sturdy soldier ants...each uses five small eyes. / How many eyes stand guard? 6 x 5 = ?" This slight cross-disciplinary effort ends with six pages of learning activities.
