Message from the Author

This book looks at doubling; another early maths concept. Because the number two is represented by the two mice ‘Tommy and Tilly’ in the original book, I wanted to make them the “hosts” of this book.

The concept of this book is that Tommy and Tilly host a pirate party for the Number Friends and discover an old shipwreck, within which they find a ‘doubling doorway’. All of the number friends take it in turn to go through the magical doorway and get doubled.

I included instructions for how to make a ‘doubling doorway’ at the end of the book; it’s a suggestion to decorate a mirror and then put objects by it to see them doubled.

Simple, but very effective for visual and tactile learners!
