Description
Book SynopsisLearn all about measuring with Mo the Monster and his friends in these fun first maths books for children aged 5 and up
Mo is going to the Museum of Science today on a school trip! All the monsters are very excited about seeing the sights of the museum while they discover mass, measure dinosaurs, learn about clocks and time and read the dials in a space simulator. 3-2-1... blast off Mo!
If a monster can understand maths, anyone can! Join Mo the Monster as he discovers the basic principles of maths, from what a fraction is, to what 3D shapes are to how to multiply BIG numbers. Along the way, Mo is kept focused (monsters are notoriously easily distracted) with the help of simple, clearly presented information, plenty of questions to answer and lots of maths puzzles and activities.
The funny, colourful illustrations offer lots of scope for humour and interest to keep children engaged while they learn. Aimed at readers aged 5+.
