| A Fishy Mystery | Teddy Bear Counting | Shark Swimathon |
| Thea has one goal: to be a clever and daring detective like Sofia Sharp, the hero of her favorite books. So when the fish bowl goes missing during math class, Thea can't wait to tackle her first case! | Count teddy bears from one to twelve, name their colors, and even form three primary shapes--square, circle, and triangle. Then count down to zero as the bears trot away. Back matter includes a review of the counting and math skills presented. | From school-favorite, Stuart J. Murphy, comes the tale of The Ocean City Sharks! The team must swim 75 laps by the end of the week! And at the end of every day, they figure out how many laps are left to go. Swimming and subtraction are all part of the fun! |
