Sharing three marshmallows between two friends

After a snowy outing, Olivia and Mei face a small, familiar puzzle over cocoa: how can two friends share three marshmallows fairly? Their dilemma turns counting and division into part of an everyday adventure. The book belongs to the Storytelling Math series, which connects children’s play and discoveries with early math concepts; the supplied description also notes hands-on activities for children and grown-ups to explore together. The marshmallow question gives the math a concrete, relatable starting point without separating it from the story.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 9–12 exploring early counting and number concepts
  • Families looking for story-based ways to explore everyday math together
  • Young readers interested in stories about friendship and fair sharing
