will enjoy the crazy take on mathematics in these two books. you know you’ve entered a strange school when your teacher can explain in mathematical terms how “she x he = sass.” each chapter acts as a very short stand-alone tale that centers around a logic problem requiring math skills. they are pretty wacky, but also quite clever (and frankly, challenging!). the books also include clues and solutions to each problem-puzzle.
and . these two books were on my list of . third grader, wilson is embarrassed that he struggles with math in school. he dreads timed tests and fears his friends will find out he has a tutor. there is much comic relief in the form of a hamster! my son loves these books and has reread them over and over. also available for kindle.
. in this installment of the kids of polk street school series, the action centers around a contest to see who can guess the number of candy corn in a teacher’s jar. as you might expect there is much discussion about estimating. however, like the rest of the series, the story also deals with kids overcoming their insecurities and learning the ropes of being a good friend.
. the practical side of math is highlighted when sixth-graders rufus and kate decide to invent a superior toothpaste, sell it and make their fortunes. first published 40 years ago, jean merrill’s book (she also wrote

this is an odd sort of book, translated from the german, but my 8 year old declared it a winner. 12 year old robert has trouble with math and each night in his dreams he meets the number devil who helps him understand various mathematical concepts, some of which are quite advanced. illustrations are in color, which is unusual for a chapter book and math concepts are visually displayed.
, and . pappas’ books each contain short tales narrowly focused on a particular mathematical concept. you name the concept, there’s a explanatory story about it. the books include side notes, copious diagrams, thorough explanations as well as suggested activities. these are terrific books for math-obsessed kids but are also very useful for children who might need some help understanding a particular concept. also available for kindle (although many of the reviews indicate the kindle versions have numerous scanning errors).
. in ancient arabia, beremiz samir dispenses his mathematical wisdom to solve problems, give advice and to inspired admiration wherever he goes. math concepts and the history of important mathematicians weave through the adventures of one man during his travels.
