About the Book

How tall is a giraffe, a monster truck, or a snowman? Eight different objects, from flamingos to birthday cakes, show you how to measure height in hilarious ways.

About the Author :
Clara Cella lives, writes, and draws in Red Wing, Minnesota. Her nonfiction titles for children celebrate all sorts of things, from groundhogs and U.S. presidents to aircraft, aliens, and trolls. She recharges her creative battery with hikes along the river bluffs with her dog, BetsyBoo.

Review :
More goofy and entertaining than truly mathematical, the Silly Measurements series employs cheerily rhyming text and photo-illustrated scenarios to introduce young kids to concepts of relative size and shape. How Many Ducks Could Fit on a Bus?, which explores the concept that may perhaps be the most difficult for younger readers to grasp, looks at volume, as the rhyming texts asks readers to guess how many animals could fit in different objects ("Squeal! Squeeeeal! / Rub-a-dub-dub! / How many piglets could fit in a tub?") The design may sometimes confuse readers--only seven ducklings fit inside the bus, for example--but the illustrations should help them out. How Many Flamingoes Tall is a Giraffe? depicts the relative height of different objects (a tennis ball is 20 ladybugs high!) and is especially similar to How Many Kittens Could Ride a Shark?, which explores object length (an otter is 12 rubber ducks long!). Scales helpl illustrate How Many Llamas Does a Car Weigh?, which tells us that a burger weighs as much as four chipmunks, a hummingbird is three buttons, and a baseball and a bunny weight the same. Since there's no back matter explaining how these parallels were calculated, these are lighthearted, general introductions that will encourage young readers to start making real-world comparisons.--Maggie Reagan "Booklist"
