Mice Mischief: Math Facts in Action

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Judith Rossell. "9 mice tidy. / 1 mouse somersaults. 9 + 1 = 10." As ten mice prepare for their circus, the breakdown of activity shifts from chores to play, cleverly reinforcing how different combinations of numbers all add up to ten. Mixed-media illustrations of cute-as-can-be acrobatic mice are supported by spare text and a simple equation on each spread, providing an inviting way to introduce basic addition.
