(3) K-3 Photographs by Shmuel Thaler. This bilingual book explains the relationships among fractions, decimals, and percents. In a format particularly useful for visual learners, each well-chosen example faces a large, striking photo of the featured object, bordered by solid color bars. The Spanish translation is adequate, and the vocabulary used is simple enough to learn.

(3) K-3 Photographs by Shmuel Thaler. After a compact but clear and thorough explanation of the relationship among fractions, decimals, and percentages, Gifford gives examples: "1/12 of a dozen eggs / .08 / 8%," etc. Each example faces a large, striking photo of the featured object, bordered by solid color bars for a neat graphic effect. The examples ("1/10 of your toes"; "1/3 of a traffic light") are well chosen and original.
