Good story and appropriate for use in the classroom
This book was great, but maybe just a tad confusing. I used this in a lesson plan with 3rd graders. The story is sufficiently interesting, and it tells a story of place values up to the thousands place. This would be a good book to introduce a lesson on place values, or to close a lesson on place values. Just don't use it for the instructional part of your set or your kids will be a bit confused. Good book overall and I would use it again!

Great home education tool
My 5 year old really enjoys this book and others in the series. It was a great way to introduce him to the concept of place value and expanded number form.

Place Value Wonder
This book is an excellent addition to your math book collection. I found it very useful to teach place value and there are some awesome lesson resources available online as well. The kids still love to read it and a few even noticed the play on words with the character and town names.

This book was cute and I enjoyed the way it pulled in the math. We've only read it a couple of times, but my 5 year old seems to enjoy it as well.

Funny read even years later
Pretty funny book. Bought this book for my daughter when she was 6. Two years later, she still enjoys reading it. She liked how it talks about place values and she can apply it to when she is at school or when she has to count quickly. I would recommend to others.

kids enjoy this!
I am a new teacher and am building my classroom library; in my opinion, it is important to include books with a math theme so that I can conduct interesting mini-lessons. Having this book helps round out the library. I think the students will enjoy it.

My son (a kindergartener) loves these stories. Most of them tackle topics just beyond him, but this story, the round table, and the sword and the cone have been just right. He lights up when he solves the story's problem (and checking the answer at the end!) and loves hearing about the concepts at the end.
