Luna’s Yum Yum Dim Sum

Luna’s Yum Yum Dim Sum (Storytelling Math)

Booktalk: On Luna’s birthday, the whole family goes out for dim sum–but Luna and her brothers can’t agree on how to share their pork buns fairly. How can three people divide up five buns? Should some siblings get more than others? Or should they cut the buns into smaller and smaller pieces so everyone gets the same amount?

Luna and the author both have Year of the Tiger birthdays – and the next Year of the Tiger begins on February 1, 2022!
