Reviews
Most collections would benefit from this simple entry into the world of mathematics. - School Library Journal
A great read-aloud story book ideal for stimulating young minds. - Midwest Book Review
Children who are studying patterns and sorting will find this book interesting, especially because the packrat has so many different ways to sort objects in addition to using color, size, and shape. Some ways are not necessarily obvious. - Teaching Children Mathematics
