Series Review: Mandrill Mountain Math Mysteries"The best monkey-based education since "monkey see, monkey do," these stories star a group of assorted primates who have washed up on the shores of a strange island. There, they use their problem-solving abilities to survive and outwit a band of hostile apes. The humorous adventures provide a lighthearted and exciting way to demonstrate various mathematics-related skills."
