Cheetah Math: Learning about Division from Baby Cheetahs

30 pp. | Holt | July, 2007 | Trade ISBN 978-0-8050-7645-5 $16.95
(4) K-3 Right-hand pages relate how San Diego Zoo trainers paired two cheetah cubs with dogs to help the cubs feel at ease around zoo visitors. Simultaneously, left-hand pages teach division strategies (equal groups, repeated subtraction) in contexts related, but not integral, to the cheetahs' story. The book's dual-purpose format is a little awkward, but the photogenic felines and their canine pals will keep readers interested.
