A Treasure of MeasuresA Treasure of Measures

"This playful picture book introduces young readers to different units of measurement, then invites them to think of the many creative ways to quantify the meaningful moments in their lives. How do you measure the time it takes to read a good book? Sure, you can use units of time, like minutes or hours . . . but you can also use your very own measurements: how many times you laugh or cry, how many pages you turn, or how many times you ask to read it again. And measuring a rainfall could mean using decibels of sound . . . or how many people you see opening umbrellas. The possibilities are as limitless as your imagination!"--
