This book uses fine paintings and numbers to encourage students to look deeper into the painting and find items in the painting such as two eyes or eight boats. It covers numbers 1-20. A great way to bring art into math.

The paintings in this book are diverse and interesting. It is very simple but

also engaging.

I read this to a third grade math class. They loved searching for the items in the paintings. Some were easy but some required them to look deeper. They were all actively involved searching the painting. It can also be used to introduce students to different types of art. We discussed abstract and still life painting. It is a great introduction to several artists.
