Meet all the Stories for Maths characters in this large collection of 147 picture books (3 copies of each of the 49 books). In the Reception series, Herb the hippo, Gus the giraffe, Meg the bat, Zig and Jazz the zebras are the Wild Buddies, warm-hearted African animal characters who solve problems and help each other. Year 1 introduces Make it Monster, lovable monster friends Ralf, Scooter, Netty, and Cora, help each other get out of tricky situations and invent wacky solutions along the way. The Year 2 series is full of warmth, community, and kindness. It features siblings Nadia and Omar, whose new dragon friend Ember takes them on adventures. The books focus on maths topics aligned with the UK Primary Maths curriculum (White Rose Maths). The vocabulary and concepts in the stories match what children learn in class. There are supporting questions that deepen maths learning, making it easier for teachers or parents to engage with the material. Three copies of each of the 49 books allows teachers and teaching assistants to use these books with small groups of children for intervention, and independent reading in Year 2.
