Product Description
Giggle, Grin, Grunt and Groan with this fun math book for all ages and mathematic skills.
Discover puzzles, games, curiosities, the secrets of "mathmagic," the arithmetic in art, tips to manage your money, the funny ideas of famous mathematicians, and 100 good ways to stump a friend (or a teacher).
This book entertains, amuses and challenges the reader, while giving rise to a broader appreciation of mathematics. Almost all the topics covered in the book are appropriate for an elementary or pre-algebra student. Yet, they have appeal across a broad range of ages and skill levels in mathematics.
Trained mathematicians, engineers and CPA's grin as happily at these materials as the student looking for a way to perplex a teacher. In the end, all come away with a greater appreciation of the mysteries of mathematics.

I read my copy of Mathematickle, then shared it with my grandson. He was so intrigued and curious, he took it to school to share with his math teacher. His teacher shared it with the class. It sparked enthusiasm in the classroom and my grandson reveled in being the center of attention for the day! The illustrations are a great complement to the book.
