Why? The goal of the Peg + Cat books and show is to help inspire preschoolers\u2019 natural curiosity about math and develop strategies for solving problems. Even at a young age, I despised math (still do. That&#8217;s why I read so much.) But I&#8217;m glad an adorable series like Peg + Cat is here to intertwine both math and fun. In their newest book,<em> Peg + Cat: The Eid al-Adha Adventure<\/em>, young readers not only work on developing new skills, but see the duo exploring a holiday tradition with their friends Yasmina and Amir. Peg + Cat learn all about the concept of taking from where there\u2019s more and giving to where there\u2019s less. It&#8217;s an adorably awesome book!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"mceTemp\"><\/div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2106\" src=\"http:\/\/adbiblio.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Screen-Shot-2018-08-29-at-9.28.13-PM-700x368.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"343\" height=\"180\" srcset=\"https:\/\/adbiblio.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Screen-Shot-2018-08-29-at-9.28.13-PM-700x368.png 700w, https:\/\/adbiblio.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Screen-Shot-2018-08-29-at-9.28.13-PM-240x126.png 240w, https:\/\/adbiblio.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Screen-Shot-2018-08-29-at-9.28.13-PM.png 758w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 343px) 100vw, 343px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>We typically have a successful formula for most children&#8217;s picture books, but this one came with a special request.

On top of this, we added in parents of young children. Additional traits included PBS viewers, children&#8217;s book buyers, and those reading parenting content online.
