MATH READING BOOKS
If this title caught your eye, you probably need these books. If your children are math whizzes who enjoy problem-solving and find math fascinating, skip this... I'll bet you're still reading!
My children do math worksheets only under duress. They read these following books at first because I made them, then because they were hooked (and didn't have to put pen to paper to learn math). While I can't guarantee your child will be like my non-mathematically inclined children who read these now out of pleasure...I can tell you that after a typical math assignment, telling them to read a chapter of a math book like one of these will look like fun.
In the bargain, they will learn math from the perspective of a math-loving author who knows how to write about math in an engaging, story-format that taps into the creative side of math for children who are strong language learners. I'm sure math whizzes would love them too, so if you've read this far and that's you and your children, go ahead and order them, too.
