Book SynopsisWinner of the New York Times Top 10 Best Illustrated Children’s Books of 2019. A book to promote interest in numbers and wonder at the scale they can represent, with lots to interrogate and talk about. -- School Library Association Potential goldmine of teaching ideas. -- School Reading List Double the numbers to go from 1 to 1,000,000 in 40 pages. A stunning visualization of numbers big and small. We start with a single tree; 1. As we turn the page, we are presented with a sum doubling the number on the page before it: 1+1 = 2; 2+2 = 4; 4+4 = 8. In this way, we reach a million (actually 1,048,576) within 44 pages. Each sum is brought to life with a simple graphic illustration in the distinctive style of Sven Völker. The dots form the back of a ladybird, the bubbles in a cup of soda and the water in a swimming pool. On each page, a single neon dot illustrates what one means in the context of the sum. Gloriously simple in its concept and execution, this is a book that will bring mathematics alive to parents as well as children and will also make a stunning gift book.Trade Review'This is a beautiful book for counting games. It created some amazing discussions in the classroom and is also something that can be used in an art class introducing artists such as Seurat and pointillism. The very graphic nature of the illustrations align themselves to the mathematical concept of the book. A very clever book that promotes numerous scenarios for curious children.' - IBBY UK by Dr. Karenanna Knight'Potential goldmine of teaching ideas. ' - School Reading List'My goodness, what a clever book. A Million Dots is a perfect book to support both literacy and numeracy as well as create a sense of wonder. For such a simple concept, A Million Dots is beautifully and effectively presented and although this is a book for children, I think it would be a lovely gift to any adult interested in numbers too.' - Linda's Book Bag''A new book favourite in our house and oh so cute. And oh so wonderfully illustrated… and it includes some maths too!'' - Paul et Paula''Children are fascinated by big numbers and when I presented them with this book, they instantly wanted to check that the sum was correct - and then count the number of dots! Simple, yet stunning, ‘A Million Dots’ is a great book for exploring and discussing numbers wherever you are!' ' - North Somerset Teachers Book Awards''The simple but powerful story is a visual tale of one dot doubling on each page to become 1,048,576 dots! A wonderfully simple way to introduce young children to concepts of number.'' - It's All About Stories - Facebook

Book SynopsisIn Professor Povey's Perplexing Problems, Thomas Povey shares 109 of his favourite problems in physics and maths. A tour de force of imagination and exposition, he takes us by the hand and guides us through uncompromisingly challenging territory that expands our minds and encourages a playful and exploratory approach to study. The puzzles, he says, are like toys. We should pick up the one we most enjoy, and play with it. Whether you are an aspiring scientist or an old-hand, pitting yourself against these problems will test your ability to think, and inspire you with curiosity and enthusiasm for physics. Presented with charm and wit, the questions span the gap between high-school and university-entrance standard material. Detailed answers are lightened with a fascinating and refreshing blend of scientific history, application and personal anecdote. On this delightful and idiosyncratic romp through pre-university maths and physics, the author shows us that behind every single one of these questions lies a new way of thinking about subjects we thought we had understood. He argues that engaging with the unfamiliar is key to forming deeper insights and developing intellectual independence. Professor Povey's Perplexing Problems is a manifesto that science should be playful, and a celebration of the curious.Trade Review'A great book for entertaining and educating anyone with an interest in puzzles'. * Mathematics Today *‘Quirky… impressive… whether you want to learn some new methods or brush up on old skills, this book is a fun way to do it’ * BBC Focus *‘Intriguing… What it does, and does very successfully, is explain the style of thinking and analysis interviewers are seeking… This isn’t your run-of-the-mill puzzle book’ * E&T Magazine *'If you fancy doing physics, maths or engineering at university - or wish you once had - it is an absolute must-have buy.' -- Brian Clegg * Popular Science *‘Povey collects his favorite “pre-university” problems in math and physics and presents them informally in a welcoming style… Highly recommended.’ * ALA CHOICE Magazine *‘Strong’s exhaustive study of Buddhisms is both accessible and informative. The volume’s greatest strength is the vast detail and breadth of Buddhism that it manages to cover while preserving a sense of what makes Buddhism what it is across a variety of geographic and temporal ranges. The breadth of the book notwithstanding, Strong does well to express the personal experience of Buddhism, and it is clear that this work is the result of decades of research.’ * ALA CHOICE Magazine *Table of ContentsIntroduction Acknowledgements An odd journey 1 Geometry 2 Mathematics 3 Statics 4 Dynamics and collisions 5 Circular motion 6 Simple harmonic motion 7 Mad inventions and perpetual motion 8 Kinematics 9 Electricity 10 Gravity 11 Optics 12 Heat 13 Buoyancy and hydrostatics 14 Estimation The Deadly Game of Puzzle Points Endnote

Book Synopsis_______________ 'Another brilliant book that's jam-packed with top-class tips you won't want to miss.' - MC Grammar, teacher and parent ‘Here is basically ‘the bible’ for parents (like me!) with kids in junior school – it’s everything a parent needs to know and understand in the curriculum from fractions basics to calculating the volume of a cuboid and everything in between…’ – Sara Davies MBE, Founder of Crafter's Companion and Dragon on BBC Dragons’ Den _______________ When your child comes home with the dreaded maths homework and you don’t know your BIDMAS from your BODMAS, then Maths Like a Ninja is the book for you. It’s jam-packed full of all the key concepts children need to know, all the mathematical terminology they’ll ever come across in primary school and tons of easy-to-follow visual examples on every area of maths featured in the Key Stage 2 curriculum. Whether a child is stuck on a fractions question or struggling to remember what composite numbers are, they’ll find the answer in this handy all-in-one reference guide. It supports teachers in planning and delivering lessons and shows parents how help their kids at home. Written by a practising teacher and creator of the successful Vocabulary Ninja brand, this book is worth its weight in gold. It empowers children to become independent (in school and at home) by providing them with all the information they need in one place. Neat, affordable and child-friendly, Maths Like a Ninja is game changing. Perfect for Key Stage 2 children, aged 7 and up. Maths Like a Ninja was a finalist in the Maths category at the Teach Primary Awards 2023.Trade ReviewI think every classroom and every home needs copies of this book! As a year 6 teacher, it can be impossible to fit everything in as well as revise old topics, so this is going to be the perfect tool to help my kids become more independent. And it's the perfect for supporting parents with their children’s maths! From basic skills to more complex, there’s something for everyone. -- Stephanie Elliott * Year 6 Teacher, @eenalol *Maths Like a Ninja is a hugely valuable resource, either in school or at home! It will encourage children to work independently by having a helpful how-to guide to refer to if they get stuck. Just like Write Like a Ninja, this amazing maths book has step-by-step guides on how to become confident in every area of maths. Perfect for the classroom, or even parents working at home with their children! -- Sarah Farrell * Maths Lead, @SarahFarrellKS2 *Here is basically ‘the bible’ for parents (like me!) with kids in junior school - it’s everything a parent needs to know and understand in the curriculum from fractions basics to calculating the volume of a cuboid and everything in between to help and support on a Sunday night when you get the dreaded homework book out! So if (like me) your algebra needed a bit of a brush up, or you can’t remember the difference between a superlative and a conjunction - then trust me you need to get these books! You can pick them up on Amazon - they’re only a couple of quid each - and take it from someone who has experienced it first hand - they are GAME CHANGING! -- Sara Davies, Founder of Crafter's Companion and Dragon on BBC Dragons’ Den * Instagram *This book has so many uses. It empowers children to have independence and take ownership of their own learning (in school and at home) by providing them with all the information they need in one place. It is a great guide for parents to understand what their children are learning in maths to be able to help with their learning at home. What a fantastic, affordable resource for schools and parents alike! -- Jane Clapp * Year 5 teacher *For children (and parents!) who struggle to remember the methods of calculation taught in school, this book is a very handy reminder. A great aide-memoire for the KS2 syllabus, Maths Like A Ninja will support children with homework and the revision of key concepts. -- Kate McCallam * Educational consultant and writer *Another invaluable resource from the Ninja, with everything you need for every Maths topic in one place!

Is there anything he can’t do?! Oh, and it’s great for parents and guardians too. Thank you, dude! -- Jacob Mitchell aka MC Grammar, award-winning teacher and parentA useful book for KS2 children who need reminding of the maths they need for SATs and beyond, and for teachers and parents too. * The School Librarian *

In this volume, you''ll find a collection of low floor, high ceiling tasks that will help you do just that, by looking at the big ideas at the fifth-grade level through visualization, play, and investigation. During their work with tens of thousands of teachers, authors Jo Boaler, Jen Munson, and Cathy Williams heard the same messagethat they want to incorporate more brain science into their math instruction, but they need guidance in the techniques that work best to get across the concepts they needed to teach. So the authors designed Mindset Mathematics around the principle of active student engagement, with tasks that reflect the latest brain science on learning.
