K-3Step into Reading series.
Illustrated by
Lizzy Rockwell.
As Mary Clare evenly divides snacks to share with friends, readers are introduced to basic fractions: "She picks one pear / for two to share. / One-half a pear / for each is fair." The rhyming text and cheerful illustrations don't break any new ground in the math-in-literature genre, but the simple themes--friendship and fairness--will resonate with kids.
