This book wasn't quite what I was expecting, but it was a fun book for kids filled with lots of maths related tricks and puzzles.

The book is nicely organised into sections such as patterns/sequences. There were lots of tricks in the book that children would love to show off to their friends. As well as others that would help academically and with problem solving.

The little cartoon-like pictures helped to animate the book which is nice and colourful inside. Overall I would suggest this would be a great gift for kids!

With thanks to Netgalley, author and publisher for the ARC in return for an honest review.

Fun tricks, but not really what I was expecting. I was expecting something close to puzzles and it's more of a show off tricks. When you understand that and if it' what you want, then the book is properly done!

Math is every where. It is not a subject to fear but one to embrace. The tricks will boggle your mind but you will have fun and expand your thinking and reasoning skills. There are many experiments that are hands on and will provide hours of fun and entertainment for the entire family. A great learning tool and STEM feature,

This book contains six chapters; they are Shapes, Patterns and Sequences, Mind-Boggling Tricks, Magical Mathematics, Curiouser and Curiouser and Fool Your Friends. With them, the author engages kids in Math, encouraging them to view it as more than a school subject. The illustrations add to this message; they are cartoon like and playful.

The puzzles are engaging and fun to try. Each puzzle has a section called What’s Going On that offers insights. I highly recommend this title. Making Math engaging and fun will serve kids so well.

Many thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for this title. All opinions are my own
