(3) K-3 Illustrated by Harry Briggs. Clever rhymes ask readers to solve math problems by using counting and addition strategies that include grouping, subtracting, and looking for patterns. Sleek illustrations feature different items (i.e., 50 grapes, 16 fish, or 22 snails), providing the focus for each riddle. The math question in each puzzle is highlighted in a different colored font--a helpful visual aid for young readers. Solutions are included.
