This tale of ants parading toward a picnic is “one of those rare gems capable of entertaining while it instructs” (Middlesex News). One hundred hungry ants march off single file to sample a picnic, but when the going gets too slow, they divide into two rows of fifty, then four rows of twenty-five . . . until they take so long that the picnic is gone! “The unexpected pairing of sophisticated art and light-hearted text lends this book particular distinction.” —Publishers Weekly “The illustrations . . . use a pleasing palette and energetic lines to depict ants with highly individual characters.” —Horn Book

Though he admits to not being particularly good at math, Butterworth (cognitive neuropsychology, U. College, London), the founder of the Mathematical Cognition journal, contends that we all possess an inherent "numerosity" sense--developed to different degrees of course. The author bases his case on empirical research and historical speculation. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
