review 1: Many kids dread opening math books because it is made up of mostly numbers and can get very confusing. However this math book is much different. It is full of colorful and incredibly illustrated pictures. The book starts out with easier terms and then gets progressively harder, but still contains rich colorful pictures. Goldstone starts off with words like “Possibility, Impossible, Certain, and Probable” and shows pictures to illustrate each word. In the beginning it shows 10 balloons and says it is a possibility that the monkey balloon will pop, but then asks the reader “What are some other possibilities?” By the end readers are looking at dice and the book asks “Is it possible to roll a 2 with just one dice?” Yes, it is possible but not prob... moreable.

Comments:I think kids will really understand the theory of probability much better with the use of this book. Pictures are a must for students who are learning math and these pictures greatly enhance the text.4 out of 5 StarsReviewed by: Jen T. less
