Early math skills are crucial to children’s math and school success in the following years. The use of storybooks as a mathematics learning method has been discussed frequently in recent years. Shared book reading allows different mathematical conversations to pass between parent or teacher and child. NCTM (1989) promotes the using of mathematics storybooks as a way of introducing mathematical ideas to children, as it offers a meaningful context for teaching mathematics concepts to children. Shared book reading improves children’s problem-solving skills, allows for an exchange of ideas, establishes logical, and may prompt discussion of abstract concepts. This chapter reviews how children learn mathematics and research on the use of storybooks for mathematics skill development. It concludes with examples of how explicit and implicit storybooks, in either paper or digital versions, may be used. Keywords: Storybooks, mathematics, children’s learning of mathematics, children’s development

There is a debate among economists on how to understand social reality and what kind of science the eco...
