Skills dealing with counting and cardinality provide essential foundations for beginning math students. Readers learn important topics, such as counting from 1 to 10, comparing numbers, answering “how many?” questions, counting by 10s, and writing numbers. Each topic is explained in detail using accessible text and colorful images to help readers independently explore these core math concepts. The kitchen is a great place to learn math skills, and this book uses a narrative about cooking to explain counting skills. Readers specifically work with standard K.CC.A.2 of the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics. This book should be paired with "Kaylee Can Cook" (9781477716113) from the Rosen Math Readers Program to provide the alternative point of view on the same topic.
