Review by School Library Journal Review

Gr 1-4-Each title includes plentiful color illustrations, sample problems that are highlighted by color print, and boxes with hints and suggestions to make problem-solving easier. The two-page chapters include clear explanations and easy-to-follow examples. The Internet sites are active and may be of further help to struggling math students. While children may not pick up these books on their own, they may be of benefit to homeschoolers or youngsters who need a little extra help.-Deanna Romriell, Salt Lake City Library, UT (c) Copyright 2010.

Review by Horn Book Review

Though these books, illustrated with cartoon art, may not teach the uninitiated as well as they claim in their introductions, they clearly reinforce the basic principles of mathematics. Each book (except Word) lists key terms (e.g., factor, dividend). Reading list, websites. Ind. [Review covers these Making Math Easy titles: Addition Made Easy, Division Made Easy, Fractions and Decimals Made Easy, Multiplication Made Easy, Subtraction Made Easy, and Word Problems Made Easy.] (c) Copyright 2010.
