If You give A Boy a Puzzle...

He just might sit at the table and and piece it together while fighting off the grabby hands of his 2 year old sister...
And once he's finished he will read the box and discover that it was 100 pieces...
Then he will wonder... "If this puzzle is 100 pieces, is it the same size as my 100 chart?"
So he will get his 100 chart and compare...
Upon seeing that they are not the same size he will examine the situation more closely...
And realize that there are 12 puzzle pieces along the top and 9 along the side... but the hundred chart is 10 along the top and 10 along the side...

He will come to the conclusion that his puzzle was not 100 pieces but in fact 108.
