Crash! Boom! A Math Tale

Robie H. Harris, illustrated by Chris Chatterton

Elephant tries to construct something tall enough to match Elephant’s height using a bucket of blocks. When a structure falls, Elephant rebuilds, adding and arranging blocks in new attempts. The story incorporates counting, balancing, estimating, measuring, questioning, and making predictions as the tower changes. Its block-building sequence moves between construction, collapse, and another try at making a stable, tall structure.
