'Facts and Figures' by Rose Griffiths Book Review

'Facts and Figures' by Rose Griffiths is a small hard bound book

designed to teach children mathematics. It is written under the idea or situation of a group of children who are taking care of guinea pigs. 

Examples are given of how math can be used to help look after the animals and keep them fed. Weighing the animals is also mentioned.  At one point toy guinea pigs are introduced to help with understanding a small amount about shapes and geometry. 

All and all this book is a lot more fun than it is educational. That's not bad because making math fun is a great idea. 

Who should read this book? Children nervous about math.
