Summary

"Math is all around you... if you look closely enough! From computer games to bridges, shopping malls to game shows, mathematics truly is everywhere. David Macauley's terrific troupe of curious mammoths will lead you through the basics of math, including numbers, calculation, geometry, measurement and so much more in this highly original guide to math for kids aged 8+. In Mammoth Math, not only will you learn the essential principles of math, you'll enjoy learning about them too! From start to finish, the mammoths are your guide as they seek to understand the math! These intrepid demonstrators will go to incredible lengths to educate and entertain, as they wrestle with adding or subtracting numbers, measuring angles, creating a pie chart, solving equations, and much more.
