Counting with Sebastian Pig and Friends on the Farm

32 pp. | Enslow/Elementary | May, 2009 | Library ISBN 978-0-7660-3359-7 $22.60
(4) K-3 Math Fun with Sebastian Pig and Friends series. Illustrated by Amy Huntington. A porcine protagonist and his animal pals enlist their math know-how in these books. The stories in Counting and Subtracting are the most engaging. Measuring is the weakest volume: some of the awkward illustrations don't match the text. In all the books, excerpts from Sebastian's notebook show the math concepts. All but Counting includes a glossary. Reading list, websites. Ind. Review covers these Math Fun with Sebastian Pig and Friends titles: Adding with Sebastian Pig and Friends at the Circus, Counting with Sebastian Pig and Friends on the Farm, Finding Shapes with Sebastian Pig and Friends at the Museum, Measuring with Sebastian Pig and Friends on a Road Trip, Money Math with Sebastian Pig and Friends at the Farmer's Market, and Subtracting with Sebastian Pig and Friends on a Camping Trip.
