Charts and graphs matter too, and so does knowing the difference between chicken pox and freckles. It's a fun book!

[Amber Adams · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book tells the story about students who are preparing for a school play. Something tragic is happening...some of the children have caught the chicken pox! The children use charts and graphs to asses students who have had chicken pox, who have not had them, and who currently has them. This book can be used to explain the concepts of graphing and data collection.
