This is a fun math concept book. A new reindeer joins the school and it’s put their number at 13 so when the groups are told to pair there is always a remain-deer. The book rhymes well and gets it’s lesson across. Kids will understand it and the play on words of remainder and remain – DEER. All in all, this was a fabulous math book that got the concept of prime numbers across in an excellent understandable way.
sort of history of weaving; really nice - good information about groups and how their weaving differs from other areas
The language of the book beautifully describes sounds, listening, and rhythms of weaving. Unfortunately the illustrations do not always match the text and left me feeling disjointed. For example text refering to "foot pedal" joins an image where a foot pedal isn't used. The "Clack. Clack. Swish - pull back" remind me of a large loom while the image shows a loom held in the lap, where the sounds would likely be absorbed into the weaver's clothing.

There is a complete page about prime numbers and remainders, and another about feeling left out.
The illustrations by Marie Hermansson are fun, brilliantly colorful, and delightful.
Well suited for reading alone or WITH someone of any age including ESL, and great for gifting to everyone, but especially to a school/classroom or your local public library!
I requested and received a free temporary e-book on Adobe Digital Editions from SOURCEBOOKS Kids | Sourcebooks Explore via NetGalley. Thank you… (meer)
