( ) I love this book. It's a little sad to watch the population growth. Parents will see what is happening after just a few pages, but the children will take a little longer to catch up. There are many stories that address disappearing habitat and conservation; but I've never seen one that puts the math in numeric and visual terms so the reader truly absorbs the impact. Where did all of the Snortlepigs and Magnificent Moopaloops go? They use to inhabit the forest where Uno has decided to live and build his garden. As more people come to the forest to construct their own buildings, the fewer animals they see. It goes on like this until the forest no longer exists and the only thing left is an abandoned city, Uno, his Garden, and the Snortlepig. Sadly, both Uno and the Snortlepig died. Luckily, Uno’s decedents care for Uno’s garden and soon the forest and animals began to return, but not the Snortlepig. The book illustrates the importance of finding a balance between people and nature. It uses math to demonstrates how the number of buildings affects the number of animals and plants—a great mentor text! Children will be mesmerized by the cartoonish features and funny names of the people and made-up animals (Who wouldn’t want to see a Leaping Lumpybum?!). The pages feature little whitespace and are consumed with elaborate illustrations. The author also uses a diverse color palette that adjusts to the changing mood of the story. The text consists of only two or three sentences on the left-side of the page and illustrated math equations on the right-hand side. A great picture book that involves entertainment and a learning tool for ages 5-10 years old. Highly recommended. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Uno builds a home and garden in the magnificent forest among the playful puddlebuts and feathered frinklepods, but as the place becomes more and more popular, it is overtaken by tourists and buildings until the forest and animals seem to disappear altogether.
