"(B)right, engaging illustrations… (a)n elementary-school teacher, Stephens offers a lively story and a useful appended page with several different strategies for demonstrating subtraction. This cheerful sequel to Arithmechicks Add Up (2019) has its madcap moments, while creating opportunities for kids to use subtraction skills as they enjoy the playful story." —Booklist"Arithmechicks discover that (as Stephens puts it) 'bedtime – chicks = later bedtime!' 10 diversely hued and patterned chicks respond to Mama’s 'Time to hit the hay!' with a wild scramble to hide… Stephens uses alliteration and internal rhymes to set up a cozy rhythm, and she brings the brouhaha to an end with a final henhouse snuggle. Feathery fun for the newly numerate. Take it away, Arithmechicks!" —Kirkus Reviews |
