Math Curse

Are you a Jon Scieszka fan? He is a fabulous children's author with a quirky sense of humor. Yesterday morning we read the beginning of his picture book "Math Curse." The main character feels cursed when her teacher informs her that everything can be seen as a math problem! Suddenly there is math everywhere and she doesn't know what to do!

"Math Curse" is a fantastic book to read together with your child. There are many math challenges to enjoy. The level of the math varies so there is something for almost everyone. For example, the children might be challenged with a simple math word problem, or to recognize the Fibonacci Sequence. Check it out! You won't be disappointed.

P.S. Jon Scieszka and Lane Smith also worked together to create "Science Curse." I'm sure you'll love it.
