A Fair Bear Share, a story from the award-winning MathStart series by Stuart J. Murphy, illustrated by John Speirs, is now an interactive iPad ebook by Skyreader Media Inc.
Mama Bear wants to make her special Blue Ribbon Blueberry Pie, but its up to her four cubs to gather enough nuts, berries and seeds. Three of the cubs go at it with gusto, adding up their treasures by arranging them in groups of tens and ones. They dont have enough! Will their sister—who spent the afternoon skipping, running and turning cartwheels—save the day? Learning about place value and how to regroup numbers is essential for solving more advanced addition problems, an important math skill.
