The Sundae Scoop

(3) K-3 MathStart series. Illustrated by Cynthia Jabar. At a school picnic, kids dish up eight different kinds of sundaes. To their dismay, the possible combinations dwindle when the sprinkles, caramel sauce, and chocolate ice cream sequentially disappear. The images of the wide-eyed kids and their sundae fixings are inviting, and clear diagrams help reinforce the concept of combinations. Complementary activities are suggested at book's end. Reading list.
