Reviews

  • "You can count on Oxford University Press to make learning fun with this brilliant series of books which makes maths both friendly and inspirational. Published in sturdy hardback, packed with fun characters, engaging questions, and activities, and Trapanese's playful artwork, the books are the perfect size and shape for sharing and reading together whilst exploring and enjoying the different concepts of maths." - Pam Norfolk, The Lancashire Post
  • "Visually attractive, with fun characters and written in an engaging manner, these little books are ideal for one to one sharing at home and should help young children be more mathematically assured in a nursery or other early years setting." - Jill Bennett, Red Reading Hub
  • "Presented in a lovely, durable, square hardback format, it begins by sharing the fact that shapes are everywhere, inviting little ones to notice shapes for themselves. Concepts like straight, flat, 2D, 3D, curved, tessellated, and sequences are clearly explained and demonstrated in a relatable style, with Cristina Trapanese's characterful, child-centred illustrations making it a joy to explore shapes together." - Joanne Owen, LoveReading4Kids
