Celebrate diversity, math, and the power of storytelling!

A math picture book series for preschoolers and kindergarteners with relatable stories and part of little kids’ everyday experience.

Someone in the family is stealing mooncakes! Could it be big brother Kai? Luna’s other brother Benji? One of the cousins? Or maybe a grown-up? Detectives Luna and Mina search for clues and eliminate suspects during the Mid-Autumn Festival celebration. Can they catch the thief?

Storytelling Math celebrates children using math in their daily adventures as they play, build, and discover the world around them. Luna and the Case of the Missing Mooncakes is a playful exploration of logic, featuring Chinese American characters and includes a cultural note about the Mid-Autumn Festival.

  • "How on earth do you divide five into three evenly? The answer is a smart and very basic look at the practical applications of dividing. And because this book is part of Charlesbridge’s Storytelling Math series, you’re going to get a nice explanation at the end of how to 'explore the math' with child readers."--Betsy Bird, Fuse 8 blog
Praise for Storytelling Math
  • "While we were all distracted with other things in our lives, Charlesbridge just swooped in and cornered the math-related picture book market. Cornered, heck. They’ve conquered it! You see, not only do their picture books in the 'Storytelling Math' series really show math-related concepts in wonderful contexts, but they reach out and find authors and artists from a wide range of ethnicities and cultural backgrounds."--Betsy Bird, Fuse 8 blog
