With this fine series, young readers will hone both literacy and math skills while practicing matching, seriation, and one-to-one correspondence. The large-type text is very simple—only one sentence per page—and the repetitive, predictable sentence structure aids children in reading and comprehension. The titles open with an ex- clamatory sentence to heighten interest and excitement: “I can match things in/around/ at the/my __!” High-quality full-page color photos face text pages, helping clarify meaning. The final volumes, about patterns and shapes, help students focus on discerning details. Each title concludes with an activity in which students are challenged to select the items that match from a group of images or find patterns and matching shapes. All titles hone visual literacy skills and encourage readers to be more curious to observe their surroundings. VERDICT This excellent tool is recommended for schools and public libraries.
