Great book!
Terrific book for little ones that focuses on the skill of matching - an early math concept! The only problem I had with it was that my 2-year old granddaughter so loved hearing it and matching the socks that I thought I needed to add some more variety for my sanity! She loves it! Transaction was very easy. Thank you!

Great Book for Kindergarten!
Great book! I read this book to may kindergarten class to introduce sorting. The students loved the book. I like how the book compares two socks allowing for the reading to see how the socks are alike and different.

Great Book for Math Pairing!
I used this book for a teaching lesson in Math Pairs. It was awesome, and we graphed the socks which we made to look like the ones in the book. Good for the age level intended, which is PreK-Kindergarten.

They are simply fantastic! Mr
We have most of the MathStart books. They are simply fantastic! Mr. Murphy has a knack for simplifying the concept for little kids and the illustrations are very striking. We read a new one every week and read it once a day (an idea borrowed from a friend).The books also have some activities that go with the concept.
