In this book young mathematicians will become familiar with addition and subtraction by playing maths games. Children can play either on their own or with friends, parents or teachers. The bright appealing illustrations combined with clear numbered instructions make the games easy to follow and fun to play and will develop new skills and confidence in problem solving. The fun format will help dispell the myth that maths is boring.
