Children's Literature
One of the things that all children are aware of is money. Everyday of their lives they are exposed to coins. This unique book offers the young reader the opportunity to see the coins in detail and to appreciate their value. The book begins with counting pennies in relation to a nickel and then to a dime. Then nickels and dimes in relation to quarters; all denominations in relation to a fifty cent piece; and finally how many coins does it take to make a dollar. Every option for pennies, nickels, dimes and quarters is illustrated in words and numbers. The coins are written in words and numbers next to their "realistic" portrayal. The end of the book puts the coins in vertical stacks with their value. This book is a good way to introduce simple math to children. To make the book even more appealing, it is written in rhyme. I would recommend this as a good tool for elementary teachers. 2001, Charlesbridge Publishing, $6.95. Ages 6 to 9. Reviewer: Karen Werner
School Library Journal
Gr 1-3-Simple rhymes and large, clear photographs instruct children in coin denominations, grouping, and counting. The text begins with an introduction to pennies and soon adds nickels and dimes, quarters, and half dollars to show how larger denominations take form. Coins are arranged in sets with visual equations illustrating their mathematical equivalents. By the book's end, children are asked to think of the many ways a dollar is made (100 pennies, 4 quarters, etc.). Both teachers and parents will find this book valuable as an introductory lesson on money.-Ilene Abramson, Los Angeles Public Library Copyright 2001 Cahners Business Information.
