The book starts with a picture of two girls with 1+1= US, so we know right away they are friends. We follow the girls through the book where they say smile+wave=hello to a little boy. The three of them go to school (chalk+sitting=school) and play together. They even find a best friend (laughter+keeping secrets+sharing=best friend). We see the girls go through all of the seasons (barefoot+screen door+popsicles=summer) and even venture into some of life's more difficult equations (chores/everyone=family). The pictures flow across the pages illustrating the different equations beautifully making it an even more perfect book to read aloud. My favorite equation is found on the back cover of the book and it is book+chair=cozy, because there is nothing better than cuddling up with a good book!
What are some equations that describe your life's greatest moments?
Here are a few of mine
soil + seeds=garden
mom + dad + son + daughter x love=family
American the Beautiful + car + map + driving + driving + driving=vacation
shoes + running=racing
I would love to hear your life equations!
Happy Reading!
