"Sometimes you come across a book which makes you happy. Recently, I did just that... [Maths for Mums and Dads] is brilliant, and exactly what far too many parents (including myself) need" -- Sarah Ebner The Times "A useful guide through the basics of primary school maths, covering problems you are likely to be confronted with" -- Natasha Harding Sun "This book is an absolute triumph. Given the authors' reputations, I would expect nothing less" -- Liz Woodham Primary Maths Journal "This book will take the terror out of maths for all the generations" -- Joanna Trollope "This delightful little book is perfect for parents who want to understand the different methods to do arithmetic their children are learning - and why they are being taught that way.
