Hojas Hasta Las Rodillas / Leaves to My Knees (Bilingual English/Spanish)
Reading Level: 2nd − 3rd Grade

Camille is determined to rake her own pile of leaves, all the way up to her knees!

She swishes leaves to and fro, watching her pile grow bigger alongside the piles made by Daddy and her little brother, Jayden. WHOOSH! After raking leaves to the top of her boots, a giant breeze blows the pile back down to her ankles. But Camille won’t be stopped until she gets the job done––a knee-high pile, the perfect size for . . . jumping in! Leaves to My Knees is a playful introduction to the early math concepts of size comparison and measurement.

A note by researcher and mathematics learning expert Marlene Kliman explains how parents and caregivers can use the book to help young children explore different sizes and measurement in everyday environments.


Camille está decidida a rastrillar su propio montón de hojas, ¡hasta las rodillas!

Agita las hojas de un lado a otro y observa cómo su montón crece junto con los montones hechos por papá y su hermano pequeño, Jayden. ¡GUAU! Después de rastrillar las hojas hasta la parte superior de sus botas, una brisa gigante hace que la pila regrese hasta sus tobillos. Pero Camille no se detendrá hasta que termine el trabajo: una pila hasta las rodillas, del tamaño perfecto para... . . saltando! Leaves to My Knees es una divertida introducción a los primeros conceptos matemáticos de comparación y medición de tamaños.

Una nota de la investigadora y experta en aprendizaje de matemáticas Marlene Kliman explica cómo los padres y cuidadores pueden usar el libro para ayudar a los niños pequeños a explorar diferentes tamaños y medidas en entornos cotidianos.
