A multi-cultural math tale

I have used this book to teach mathematic lessons to grades one through three. It serves as a great springboard for discussion on factors, prime numbers and patterns. The pictures are delightful and the children love to make predictions on just who will make the King happy. My students choose to return to this book over and over again.

Two Ways To Count to Ten

I came across this story in a condensed book of African Folktales. This is a really great book to read to a younger child!

Two ways to count to ten

What I dislike about this book is that the book is suitable for second and third graders not sixth graders like me. So I wish for a chapter book. So for kids in grades second or third I would purchase alot of these books for them. I give it 3 stars.

Two Ways to Count to Ten

I really enjoyed this retelling of a Liberian folk tale. This book is a great book for helping young readers to explore math concepts like counting.

The noted actress retells this lively, well-paced and involving version of a Liberian folktale.
