What's New at the Zoo? An Animal Adding Adventure

what's unprecedented at the zoo? written by suzanne slade , illustrated by joan waites , and published by sylvan dell publishing , takes the reader upon an animal adding adventure. it begins: "two hungry pandas bolt a bamboo lunch. one cub joins the meal. how a Great Deal Of crunch and munch? 2 + 1 = ?" through delightful rhyming text and numerals ms. slade creates a wonderfully engaging learning experience for children. each page offers a unprecedented addition problem.

Within the rhyming text ms. slade cleverly weaves onfo regarding animals and the names of the baby animals pictured. did you recognise that a baby mammoth boa is called a neonate? but that's not all: the illustrations are striking - they are vivid , realistic and elaborate. children will love reading this fun and educational picture book , in fact , they can not even realize they're learning in the process.

An more feature to this book is the "for creative minds" and "animal matching activity" educational installment in the back. it offers extra math problems and solutions as deservedly as onfo upon the animals mentioned in the book. it similarly explains the differences in the animal classes: mammals , birds and reptiles , and asks the reader to put each of the animals shown within the book into their correct course.

I read this book to my three-year-old grandson. he said his favorite installment was the picture with the peacocks. i then had my eight-year-old big nephew read it to me while answering the addition questions. they both enjoyed this book as will all children within the intended age group and even those a little younger. i highly recommend what's unprecedented at the zoo?
