This is a home study series designed to teach children core skills that will build confidence at school. Each book supports the literacy or numeracy framework for the relevant school year. The English titles cover a wide range of topics ranging from comprehension to story writing, and the maths titles cover topics ranging from algebra to fractions. The books magical wizard theme should entertain as well as educate. Motivation is encouraged by giving gold stars, which can be added to a certificate of excellence at the back of each book. Parental guidance on how to make the best use of the book is included.

A counting book in which a little monster's birthday party gets out of control.

A math-phobic boy faces another dreaded evening of multiplication when a monster suddenly appears in his room and offers him a deal he cannot refuse. After a quick signature on a contract, the boy's problems are solved, and his homework is ready to turn in the next day. At first, everything adds up perfectly. But when the boy's math knowledge is tested at school, his troubles begin to multiply. What did the fine print on that contract read? "In paragraph seven of clause ninety-three, "If you don't learn anything, do not blame me!" When the bill comes due, will our hero have the money—and the math skills—to subtract that wicked monster from his life once and for all?

In an exciting, fast-paced historical narrative ranging across two centuries, Ronan takes readers on an exhilarating tour of this final mathematical quest to understand symmetry.

Grab your jumbo popcorn—you're invited to the premiere of a 3-D movie, all about those three dimensions! Trusted math picture book duo David A. Adler and Ed Miller tackle the differences between two- and three-dimensional objects in their signature bright and kid-friendly way. Explaining length, width, and height-- and all the different ways we represent those figures-- Adler shows how changing the dimensions of an object affects its size. . . . with some help from a cast of funny, friendly movie monsters. Explaining key vocabulary in simple text and offering numerous concrete examples and sample math problems with included solutions, Perimeter, Area, and Volume is a perfect introduction to two- and three-dimensional geometry. The star-studded cast of monsters will help you calculate the perimeter of the set, the area of the movie screen, and the volume of your box of popcorn. Learning about dimensions has never been so entertaining!

This work is motivated by and develops connections between several branches of mathematics and physics--the theories of Lie algebras, finite groups and modular functions in mathematics, and string theory in physics. The first part of the book presents a new mathematical theory of vertex operator algebras, the algebraic counterpart of two-dimensional holomorphic conformal quantum field theory. The remaining part constructs the Monster finite simple group as the automorphism group of a very special vertex operator algebra, called the "moonshine module" because of its relevance to "monstrous moonshine."

Boo! There is a mystery behind every door of the creepy haunted house. Luckily, algebra will help you solve each problem. By using simple addition, subtraction, mulitplication, and division, you'll discover that solving math mysteries isn't scary at all -- it's fun!
