Angles, shapes, and an accessible way to the pool

Zoe’s rooftop pool-party plan runs into a practical obstacle: some of her toys use wheels, and the toy house has no route to the pool. Her search for a safe solution brings angles and shapes into an everyday problem, with inspiration from a ramp she sees outside. The story connects mathematical thinking with accessibility and problem-solving. Back matter extends the topic with information about simple machines and STEAM activities, making the book a blend of picture-book fiction and hands-on learning prompts.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Young children exploring basic math concepts such as angles and shapes
  • Families or educators introducing accessibility and problem-solving through a story
  • Children interested in STEAM activities and simple machines

Join Zoe in an exploration of angles and shapes, because STEAM is everywhere and for everyone!

Part of STEAMWORKS, a series of fiction picture books for ages 4-7 that relate science, technology, engineering, arts, and math (STEAM) to kids' everyday lives.

Time to party! Zoe is planning a pool party on the roof of her newly constructed toy house. There is just one problem--some of her toys use wheels to get around, and there is no accessible way to the pool! Zoe knows how that feels, so she's determined to figure out a safe solution for everyone to have fun. After some trial & error and a trip outside to look at her own ramp for inspiration, Zoe and the toys are ready to ramp up the fun!

Extend the learning beyond the story with expertly crafted back matter, including additional information about simple machines and fun STEAM activities.

STEAMWORKS features children of all backgrounds and abilities using scientific and mathematical thinking to solve everyday problems and answer questions that matter to them.
