Join Sir Cumference and the gang for more wordplay, puns, and problem solving in the clever math adventure about place-value and counting by tens. Sir Cumference and Lady Di planned a surprise birthday party for King Arthur, but they didn’t expect so many guests to show up. How many lunches will they need? And with more guests arriving by the minute, what about dinner? Sir Cumference and Lady Di count guests by tens, hundreds, and even thousands to help young readers learn place-value. Fans will love this new installment of the Sir Cumference series that makes math fun and accessible for all. Review: 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. Review: 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!

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.

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.

My son (a kindergartener) loves these stories. Most of ...
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.

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.

Great for math-loving kids
The Sir Cumference books are great for kids interested in math. My 8yo son, who loves math, devours these, though my 8yo daughter who is not interested in math, finds these uninteresting as well. But they teach concepts in a really great, fun way.

Not as great as I'd been lead to believe
Not as great as I'd been lead to believe... my daughter got so involved in the story that she completely missed the math in it

Good book
A good story woven round an educational theme. My grandson loves it. (I shouldn't have to keep adding unnecessary words to reach Amazon's wordcount.)

Part of a set of books, some more harder than others to understand. Great pictures. Got a bit boring at times though
