Keep the change! (English)

This title forms part of the Little Library programme, which consists of a Literacy Kit, Numeracy Kit and Life Skills Kit. These were developed to respond to a need for high-quality, indigenous books for the younger members of our communities, and have been successfully used in schools for the last ten years. This title is found in the updated, OBE version of the Little Library Maths Kit, now called the Little Library Numeracy Kit. The Numeracy Kit keeps seven of the best stories, and introduces five new ones - all of them trialled in classrooms around the country. In Keep the change, Ryan has a lucky day when a one hundred rand note falls into his hands. This sets off a chain of events where his friends and family buy gifts for themselves and also for their loved ones. Mathematical themes include money, totals, buying and working out change.
