Charlie loves to share: exploring odd and even

Charlie loves to share.

This book explores the concept of odd & even numbers.

The story follows Charlie and Sam and the concept that when a number is shared between 2, an odd number always has 1 left over, while even numbers can be shared evenly (and equally) between two.
