Introduce children to Roman numerals with this fun counting book. Each numeral is introduced, and then children count the pigs in the accompanying picture to find out the value of the numeral. This continues for 100, 200, 300, and even 1,000 - if you care to count all those pigs (I confess, I had to just out of curiosity, although I didn't count the M page, as I couldn't tell if it held just one thousand pigs, or even MM or MMM pigs - even I'm not THAT curious). The text gives tips on how to read numerals, and when to add and subtract them to get the right number. At the end of the book, several pages offer a number (in Roman numerals, of course) of objects in a picture. Children can find and count these objects for additional practice. A very cute way to learn the Roman numerals. - Melissa

Description
Publisher's Description of Roman Numerals I to MM
With a farm of pigs as his abacus, Arthur Geisert uses elements of a search and count game to bring Roman numerals to life in this unintimidating math-concept book. First, the seven Roman numerals are equated with the correct number of piglets. Then the reader may practice counting other items—hot-air balloons, gopher holes, and more—as the remarkable adventure unfolds. (And yes, there are one thousand pigs in the etching for M!)
