Product Description
Molly loves cars. And as soon as her big brother, Kevin, leaves the room, she's ready to play with his cars. The red cars vroom! The blue cars crash! And the yellow cars beep! And readers learn to recognize patterns, one of the earliest and most essential math skills. Stuart J. Murphy and Chris Demarest make learning this skill a joy for every child who loves cars.

 Not as expected May 22, 2009

This book is not as good as some of the others. Not as interesting, rather bland.
 Excellent for introducing patterns December 29, 2008

As I read the book aloud, I always go back to the page where it shows how the big brother had his cars arranged -- in an ABC pattern, and ask the kids, is this the way the little sister should arrange the cars so that she won't get in trouble? The kids love the book! I find there are very few books that teach patterns in an interesting way like this.
 ok for math but not a book for us... December 9, 2002

This book is fine for teaching patterns, it's main intent. I have a problem with the behavior of the kids however. First, the older brother doesn't share and his parents have no problem with this. Secondly, the younger child sneaks around misbehaving and ignoring both of her parents and her brother yet she's rewarded with a gift. We won't be reading this one again.

I used this book as a follow-up to our math patterning unit in my Kindergarten class. As I read the book, the students manipulated unifix cubes to copy the various patterns throughout the story. It was a great hit and certainly a good review of the patterning concept.
Fun to read! February 27, 2001

My children LOVE this book. Don't think that because this is a "math" book it will be uninteresting! The repetition of the car sounds (beep beep, vroom vroom, crash crash) holds even my 1 and 3 year olds attention. It is fun to read and the author gives you some ideas in the back of the book to try while reading the book. You can read it for fun or point out patterns, colors, or even talk about sharing or asking permission. It is a wonderful book for a boy or a girl. I am giving this book as gifts because my girls enjoy it so much.
