Missing Math: A Number Mystery

(4) K-3 "Last Monday was an average day. / It wasn't odd or weird-- / till numbers all around our town / completely disappeared." Leedy's bouncy rhymes reveal how being "numberless" disrupts voting, cooking, sleeping, etc. And who's the number nabber? It's a raccoon with a high-powered vacuum, unmasked by a trench coat–clad ginger cat in Leedy's lively, if a bit busy, digital illustrations.
