Reviews

School Library Journal, Series Made Simple

“Besides delivering charm, this series offers plentiful learning opportunities as it helps children explore directionality, spatiality, and opposites. . . Children will come to understand the idea of objects’ and their own relative positions in space—a fundamental math skill.” —School Library Journal
