What's Your Angle, Pythagoras? A Math Adventure
Julie Ellis
Charlesbridge Publishing, 2004
Pythagoras made easy!
This is probably the most enjoyable way I have come across to teach Pythagorean Theorem to my children. It's one of those special books which children will read without realising they are learning a mathematical concept. Highly recommended to teachers and parents ...

Great Way Of Sneaking In Math!

Sir Cumference and the Dragon of Pi: A Math Adventure
Cindy Neuschwander
Charlesbridge Publishing, 1999
A wonderful way to remember pi
I feel the age range given on the website should not be ages 4-8. This is appropriate for 8 and up. That said, my 5 year old enjoys it as just a fairy tale and I would not attempt any "teaching" to him. He listens as I read it to my older daughters and maybe it will ...

Baby Animals Black and White: Black and White
Phyllis Limbacher Tildes
Charlesbridge Publishing, 1998
3-Week Old Already Loves It!
I ordered this book after reading that newborns are most stimulated by black and white images. I was amazed when I held the book up for my 3-week old to look and he actually looked at it and focused on each of the pages, scanning back and forth. It was really neat to ...

Sir Cumference and the Great Knight of Angleland: A Math Adventure (Sir Cumference)
Cindy Neuschwander
Charlesbridge Publishing, 2001
A great learning tool
I used this book to introduce the concept of angles to my class. They loved every bit of listening to this book and have kept the ideas of "mountains of obtuse" and "cute quaint" town when identifying angles.

Sir Cumference and the Isle of Immeter (Math Adventures)
Cindy Neuschwander
Charlesbridge Publishing, 2006
Fun and educational
My nine-year-old loved the earlier books in the Sir Cumference series, and was excited to hear that a new one was available. He enjoyed it thoroughly, for both the story and the math content. This series of books ranks near the top of his favorites list.

Hello Ocean
Pam Munoz Ryan
Charlesbridge Publishing, 2001
HOW THE SEA SHOULD BE SEEN!
This is a delightful book in so many ways. The sea, or ocean, as seen through the eyes, ears, nose, taste and feel of a little girl, a child, and which is probably the best pay to view anything in nature, i.e. through a child's preception. Children see so much more ...

The Making of a Knight: How Sir James Earned His Armor
Patrick O'Brien
Charlesbridge Publishing, 1998
Excellent book for young children
I bought this book because my son (James) is very interested in the Middle Ages, King Arthur, etc. Since he is 7 years old and the book begins when Sir James is 7 years old, he really enjoyed it. The details on weapons, armor, etc. added a great touch and were not ...
