Publisher Description: Monsters, fractions, and cake, oh my Mariah's baking a cake for some monsters, and the measurements are all messed up. Who knew that 2 half cups equal 1 whole cup Mariah is so confused. Does 30 minutes really equal a half of an hour? Brennan tries to help her figure it all out, smirking all the way, but the monsters will be coming over soon Quick, bake that cake Soon the cake is finished, smelling perfectly boggish, just like Mariah wanted . . . But, wait, Brennan wonders, why are monsters coming over anyway? This extra special and delightfully silly story teaches children fractions in a fun, exciting way, all while showing the special power of friendship and the funny way perspective can be skewed. An action packed and sweet tasting activity is included at the end of the story so all little 'monsters' can bake along |
