Hungry for Math: Poems to Munch On
By Kari-Lynn Winters and Lori Sherritt-Fleming; illustrated by Peggy Collins
This rollicking book of poetry reminds us that math is everywhere. Rhombuses, estimates, symmetry, patterns, shapes, skip-counting, money and sums are poetically presented in engaging verses that delight as well as teach mathematical concepts.
