If Mr. Mouse can learn to have fun with math, anyone can! Review "Actor-author McKellar, who has a mathematics degree, uses catchy visuals to teach kids and parents multiplication and division in a way that's more entertaining than memorizing times tables. Colorful illustrations and appealing cartoon graphics, stories, and rhymes explain multidigit multiplication and long division. The text and fun visuals make the book a useful way to teach mathematics to kids and parents alike." —Booklist "The brilliant-through-simplicity textual explanations are easily accessible to independent readers, and the problem sets are set up for readers to succeed. Multiplies the good times for young mathematicians." —Kirkus Reviews "Using methods from the Common Core State Standards, the math is described in easy-to-understand pictures and examples.
