"The Sundae Scoop" - a great book

This book is perfect for young readers. The pictures are highly detailed and they suit the story very well. The setting of the story is during a school picnic at school. The children along with Winnie decide how to plan the sundae booth for the school picnic. The children pick out which flavors they want to eat, and Winnie, the adult in charge of the sundae booth, maps out there choices they can pick on a blackboard. Winnie's illustrations on the blackboard and the story will stimulate most young children's mind, and it will teach then a little bit of math in a fun way through books instead of at school. So this educates children to learn how to read and understand math. There is only one word that young children might not understand, and that word is stupendous. So this story will be easy to read even for children who struggle reading or just don't read that often. Because of the great illustrations and interesting story, I give this story a 4 out of 5.by Jordan Miller
