THE GREAT MATHEMACHICKEN by Nancy Krulik, illustrated by Charlie Alder

1: HIDE AND GO BEAK

“This STEM series debut for newly independent readers provides a light but engaging look at simple machines.” —School Library Journal

“[A] smart, sprightly chapter book series starter. . . . Short, dialogue-driven paragraphs by Krulik (the Princess Pulverizer series) are peppered with 'eggs-tra' humor and chicken wordplay . . . while Alder’s (Doggo and Pupper) cartoon spot illustrations, rendered in tones of yellow, gray, and black, provide plenty of visual characterization.” —Publishers Weekly

2: HAVE A SLICE DAY

“Krulik succeeds at keeping the math component present without overwhelming the story. The abundant wordplay, and chicken and egg puns throughout the book are amusing. . . . Illustrations are colorful, enjoyable, and complement the text well. . . . An enjoyable early chapter book. . . .” —School Library Journal

“Krulik loads her 10 easily digestible chapters with puns and jokes as well as nuggets of learning. . . .” —Kirkus Reviews
