Patterns are found in math, reading, science, music, art, dance, and poetry--and in the world all around us.

Miss Emma’s cows just can’t stay put! Each time they wander into Cowboy Kirby’s yard, he uses odd and even numbers to count the herd. Then he sends all the evens back to Emma and keeps the odds for himself. It’s only fair, he thinks. And, besides, Emma sure is cute. Kirby doesn’t notice that his herd keeps getting smaller while Emma’s grows larger. Emma is the kind of gal that is good at math (as well as running a ranch and baking a cake). Yet she’s tenderhearted and doesn''t want to hurt her friend''s feelings by explaining his math mistake. How will she solve their problem with odds and evens? Count on Emma for coming up with a surprise ending!

When the clock strikes one, a fun-loving mouse runs up the clock. But what happens when the clock strikes two? A cat gets hungry for mouse-tail stew . . . and the chase is on! Hour by hour, more animals—and even a few people—join in. The crowd charges into the barnyard, dashes through the kitchen, and eventually heads right into the middle of town. Keep your eye on the many clocks in this book and follow along until this twelve-hour race comes to a surprising end!

Tally McNally is an alley cat who loves to tally! He keeps track of all sorts of contests—who wins the most races, who is the tallest, who can climb the most trees, and more. When the results are counted up, Tally is always the winner. One rainy day, Tally competes to become the “wettest cat.” But he goes too far and gets into a jam. Will his friends—who lose to him tally after tally—find a way to save him?

P-p-p-paaak! Perico the parrot has something to say. But when he asks for agua, his new owner brings him to the opera. When he says he feels mal, another new owner takes him to the mall. Will he ever find someone who understands him?

Nearly everyone has heard about the little piggy that went to the market and the one that stayed home-but there''s a lot more to the story! 20 Hungry Piggies completes the tale while, unbeknownst to the reader, teaching an important math concept at the same time. There are many counting books that deal with cardinal numbers (1,2,3,etc), but this book teaches ordinal numbers as well-an important part of the kindergarten math curriculum. As an added bonus, children will have a great time trying to find the hidden wolf and hidden numbers in each spread.
