What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
None. The book is entirely secular, direct, and focused on mathematical concepts. It maintains a helpful and encouraging tone throughout.
Ideal Reader
An inquisitive 6-year-old who loves organizing their LEGO bricks by color or a 2nd grader who is feeling slightly intimidated by 'math words' and needs a friendly, visual entry point into the subject.
Parent Prep
This book can be read cold. However, parents might want to have a piece of paper and some markers ready, as the book naturally inspires children to want to create their own graph immediately after finishing. A parent might notice their child struggling with a homework assignment about 'more or less' or 'greater than,' or perhaps they see their child's frustration when trying to explain a preference or a survey result from school.
