Really Fun Book! March 8, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Kids will love this book which helps kids and adults picture the amount a million something might look like. How big would your goldfish bowl have to be if you had a million goldfish, or a million kids in a stadium? Kids will be in awe of this book.
Nice illustrations March 11, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I got this book with my five-year-old in mind, but all of my two-year-olds and three-year-old also found it engaging. The illustrations are colorful and whimsical without being overwhelming or chaotic.
I think this book is probably best suited for slightly older children as some of the examples were not familiar to my children. For example, my children have never been in a stadium, so that example was a little abstract for them.
Overall a good book and an excellent way to introduce the concept a million.
Helped my kid conceptualize numbers September 3, 2006 The beautiful artwork and kid-freindly examples captivated my 5-year old daughter. Genuinely helped her better understand how big a million is - and, how much bigger a billion and a trillion are. A lovely addition to a classroom, but also perfect for your home library as well!
