{Giveaway} You Can Count On Monsters book

July 12, 2011

It’s Hockey Camp today for us!  Wish my eldest adorable luck as he skates with the big boys of Michigan.  We’re not in Connecticut anymore folks… this is serious, intense Michigan youth hockey.  And luckily, he loves it!

I want to share with you something else we’ve loved – and you can win your own copy!  Today, I have 2 copies to give away, so you have double the chance of winning.

 

This is not just any book – it’s all about math.  Surprise!

What do you think when you hear the words “primes, multiplication, factors and factor trees, factorials”?  Is it sheer panic, nervous hives??

(Perhaps that’s just me…)

But do not fear – Open this book and find a very innovative, visually clear presentation of multiplication and factor trees – I could even understand prime numbers in a new way.

And that’s saying something…

 

Every page illustrates a number down to its primes, with a corresponding monster illustration – part of the fun is finding the primes in the illustration.  Trust me, it’s captivating.
