How to get your kids to do math without even knowing it!,
By Amy M. Santarelli (Omaha, NE United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: How Do Octopi Eat Pizza Pie? Pizza Math (I Love Math) (Hardcover)
This book is one of many in the "I Love Math" series. Unlike a typical math textbook, these books take math into the realm of everyday life with a variety of activities, situations,stories, and puzzles. Your kids will be doing math and loving it without even realizing it. Speaking as an elementary teacher and a parent, I think these books are a great addition to the home library.

An existence proof that it is possible to make learning math fun,
By Charles Ashbacher (Marion, Iowa United States) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER) (VINE VOICE) (HALL OF FAME REVIEWER)
This review is from: How Do Octopi Eat Pizza Pie? Pizza Math (I Love Math) (Hardcover)
While learning math can be accomplished without anything resembling fun, it is much easier to accomplish if there is some joy involved. Interjecting the fun is much easier to do when the students are children and this book is an existence proof that it can be done. The math games are simple, at the level of the first or second grader and they involve everything from manipulation, the interpretation of diagrams and simple graphs to reading a short passage and deriving the answer.
The proper amount of silliness is included, for example having butterflies count French Fries uses a simple and silly rhyme to make the point of how counting is done. This is an excellent book that will entertain while educating.
5.0 out of 5 stars
Math concepts in appealing stories & activities,
This review is from: How Do Octopi Eat Pizza Pie? Pizza Math (I Love Math) (Hardcover)
This book has stories, riddles, and activities, all illustrated in full-color with entertaining characters, that have a math concept weaved into them. The book keeps the math very natural and appealing - there are no "worksheet" type problems here. The goal is to help children love math and I think the book achieves the goal!
