Review: Great teacher buy - Great teacher buy for early years number work. I use with numicon shapes and print out the different animals to go with them. Works well for small group interventions.
Review: Absolutely brilliant - I teach reception and we use this at school (also in Year 1) the kids love it and it inspires them to really get their teeth into some tricky maths in a really fun way. Great for addition and subtraction and number bonds, as well as independent problem solving. If I could give this more stars I would.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent teaching book.
*by B***O on 12 June 2014*

I would really recommend this book for KS1 teachers. It provides many opportunities for problem solving, making target amounts using the animal feet, and also provides an introduction for multiplication. As a mum as well, my children also enjoy it as a bed time read!
