An early elementary book about adding using different types of apes.

I really enjoyed the way Math was integrated in this book. I like how the reader was able to learn a lot about each kind of ape along with Math at the same time. I found it refreshing and fun! I love monkeys and this book was full of information! Great way to incorporate Math in a fun and attention-getting way!

This is a short book that gives a brief description of the animal in the picture on each page and then an addition problem. Young kids could easily count the number of animals in the pictures, they are pretty small numbers.
