Synopsis by the author/publisher
A young boy uses different kinds of charts and graphs to present information about his life.​

“Look, Katie, let's put them in piles like this." Katie stacked the cards and Bart counted: 30 basketball cards, 10 football cards, and 60 baseball cards. He grabbed the box top and a marker. "If you can count it and sort it, you can chart it!" Bart said.”
