However, when their basketball becomes stuck, the chicks discover that a two-inch-tall new friend is exactly what they need. In this heartwarming story, there are many ways to add up ten cheerful chicks--but a new friend is what makes them cheer. The book includes a helpful glossary that defines the eight arithmetic strategies the chicks use throughout the story, providing a playful introduction to essential math for young children and their caregivers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n                                    \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                                    \u003cp\u003eAnn Marie Stephens is the author of several picture books including \u003ci\u003eScuba Dog\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eCy Makes a Friend\u003c\/i\u003e, and forthcoming titles, \u003ci\u003eArithmechicks Add Up\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eArithmechicks Take Away\u003c\/i\u003e.
