Bookroo's summary
A hundred hungry ants set off for a picnic, eager to feast. But their single-file march is too slow, prompting the smallest ant to suggest dividing into rows. As they split into two, then four, and more, their journey becomes a math lesson in division. But will their calculations cost them the picnic? Discover the whimsical adventure of these determined ants as they race against time and hunger, learning that sometimes, the fastest route isn't always the best.
From the publisher
One hundred hungry ants march off single file to sample a picnic, but when the going gets too slow, they divide into two rows of fifty, then four rows of twenty . . . until they take so long that the picnic is gone!
