Sir Cumference and the 100 PerCent Goose Chase, written by Cindy Neuschwander and illustrated by Wayne Geehan is currently scheduled for release on October 31 2023. Percilla Centwell and Lady Di are off to Gaggleston-on-Green to deliver Percilla's flock of one hundred geese to the townspeople who ordered them. When some of the geese go missing on the way, Percilla and Lady Di must figure out a way to make sure all of the customers still get their fair share of the flock. In this latest medieval math adventure, readers learn about finding percents as part of a whole by using fractions. The endnote includes step-by-step instructions for calculating percent.
Sir Cumference and the 100 PerCent Goose Chase is another book in this fun, and sneakily educational, picturebook series. I think the story was clever and entertaining, while helping readers get a better working understanding of percents. I thought the art did a great job of enhancing the story, and keeping readers engaged. I have yet to be disappointed by the clever and entertaining notions of this series, and this one met all my expectations and left me wishing I was working with children's books again.
