(4) K-3 MathStart series. Illustrated by Mike Reed. Little brother Mike wants to participate in the fifteen kilometer bike race, but Justin and Marissa say it's too long. Determined Mike practices by biking around the athletic field and the zoo. Diagrams in the pastel-style illustrations showing distances around a perimeter are out of scale, but the mild story and lesson go down easily. Related activities are appended.
