Series Review: Sports Math "These books introduce basic math concepts in a
way that will appeal to children as young as advanced second graders and as
mature as lower-functioning or math-resistant sixth graders...the colorful
images and photos will draw children in, while questions will encourage thinking
and applying math skills to real-life examples that entertain as they educate."
