This playful picture book demonstrates the concept of fractions in a
story featuring the Arithmechicks, 10 math-loving chicks.
Join the Arithmechicks and Mouse as they head off to the fair! These
chicks can't wait to enjoy the roller coaster, bumper cars, games, and
delicious snacks; meanwhile Mouse is determined to sink the rooster at
the dunk tank. As the Arithmechicks explore the fair, they find ways to
show how fractions work in the world. But when one chick doesn't get to
select an activity, the day doesn't go according to plan until the
chicks decide they all need to play fair. This book includes a helpful
glossary with further information about fractions, while the story
provides an exuberant introduction to essential math for young children
and their caregivers.
