Product Description
The King wants to give the Queen something special for her birthday. The Queen has everything, everything except a bed. The trouble is that no one in the Kingdom knows the answer to a very important question: How Big is a Bed? because beds at the time had not yet been invented. The Queen's birthday is only a few days away. How can they figure out what size the bed should be?

Great Book for Measurement lessons July 7, 2008
Introduces concept of standardized measurement with a fun, quick, and very readable story. Lots of lesson plan possibilities. After checking it out of the library three times, I had to buy it for myself.

This is a great book to use as an introduction to a measurement unit. Quality, print of book, and size could be better, but this is the way it was published.

I "met" this book many years ago when I was a student teacher. It has supplemented and enriched many lessons on measurement since that time. Recently, I purchased it in order to pass it on to 2 younger teachers, for their classrooms. Its charm and humor are still appealing.
