A Uniquely Informative Picture Book: In "Pebbles and the Biggest Number," author Joey Benun takes readers on an illuminating journey beyond the limits of traditional counting. This cleverly crafted picture book challenges the notion that numbers can only go so far, introducing young minds to the immense scales that exist in our universe. Through the experiences of the curious butterfly protagonist, Pebbles, readers learn that numbers don't just stop at a billion - in fact, they extend far, far beyond. Also, readers learn fun facts from a cast of knowledgeable characters. Benun seamlessly integrates lessons on the names and values of massive numerical quantities, such as quintillion, sextillion, and even further, opening up children's (and adults') eyes to the truly mind-boggling scale of our world. This book serves as an invaluable educational tool, helping readers understand that the limits of numbers are far more expansive than most realize. Blending simple yet profound concepts, "Pebbles and the Biggest Number" is a uniquely informative picture book that challenges young minds to expand their understanding of quantity, scale, and the wonders of our remarkable universe." I'm giving this book 5 Stars
