Help Your Kids with Math, New Edition (DK Help Your Kids) Paperback – Illustrated, June 16, 2014

This book is fantastic! I've been out of college for several years now, so pretty much all math that I had learned has since been forgotten. I'm planning on going back for a masters, and will need to take a number of college-level math classes (yikes!). I'm trying to re-teach myself as much as possible, and I have found this book to be one of the most helpful. It's a very "busy" book, and by that I mean that each and every page is filled with pictures, words, numbers, etc., but that is part of what makes this book so helpful to me. I do wish that this book offered additional problems and solutions on each topic, but I have found another option to get more practice in. Great resource to have if you have kids in school as well!

We homeschool our children and they struggled with math. I took a chance on this purchase as another helping tool. Turned out to be the best decision. Ended up going back and buying each book for each subject.

I love this book. I think it explains math concepts really well and I like the way the book is laid out. Even the font is great. I feel like it is one of the best books I have come across to help a child that is struggling in math. This was a good purchase, and I am glad I bought this book. No buyers regret.

I have been through almost every math curriculum you can think of, nothing was helping as it should have... until I stumbled on this book. The first day in my children are already beginning to understand powers and roots. I love this math book. It has a personal finance section, business finance, using a calculator, surds and everything from kindergarten to high school. This book covers it all, in a clear to understand, step by step sequence. It breaks things down as if the child is being exposed to math for the first time. I'm telling you; you will not be disappointed with this one.

So far it helps remind me how to solve each type of math problem. There are a few forms that I remember being taught differently but that’s ok. The biggest issue is that “common core” or the teacher (or both), have taught my son a different way to solve each type of math. Like many parents, tryin to figure out “common core” math methods is frustrating and confusing. This book hasn’t helped me understand “common core” math but it helps me and my son get the correct answers. I just worry we’ll get a teacher that won’t like us solving the problems a different way than they are teaching, but I will politely tell them to......

My nephew wasn't thrilled when I handed it to him, but having looked through the content myself, I think it's a great book :) It covers all the mathematical concepts and topics that he'll likely need for the next 10 years, all the way through high-school. Based on the generous use of color, and the formatting, it's obviously meant to explain and teach young children. It'll definitely require that an adult help teach the material, because as stated, it covers a lot of topics; but definitely a useful resource.

This is a book that every kid should be given. It shows how to master math at all levels of primary school and lays a good Math foundation for High School Math.

In the past, I have used this book as an aid for tutoring in math skills I needed a little brushing up on. Now that I am in a classroom setting where all subjects are taught, this has proved to be very effective for quickly answering questions my students may have.
