In "Peg + Cat: The Penguin Problem," the beloved duo from the popular PBS Kids series travels to the South Pole for the Animal Winter Games. They encounter a "big problem" when the penguins repeatedly crash because they don't understand basic spatial terms. Peg and Cat, with their signature problem-solving approach, guide young readers through understanding "over," "under," and "in between" using clear, engaging examples. This chapter book, ideal for ages 4-8, reinforces early math skills and the importance of perseverance and teamwork, all wrapped in a playful, accessible narrative.
"Peg and Cat are at the South Pole preparing to watch the ski race at the Animal Winter Games. Suddenly they spy the Penguins zooming downhill. CRASH! The Penguins apologize ("Snow problem," says Cat), but it seems that there is a problem: the Penguins keep slamming into things! So they all try again, with Peg shouting directions each time they come to a hurdle. "Go over! Go under! Go in between!" But the Penguins still have no clue, because they don't know what over, under, and in between mean."--Publisher.
