Book excerpt: "The Monster Book of Algebra" presents an alternative way to learn elementary algebra. The learning is visual, and comes in the form of stories, jokes, games, puzzles, and fun mental exercises. Each chapter presents a story narrative with interesting characters that propel the action-and the reader--through the algebra concepts that are covered. For example, in Chapter 7 readers help Muffy the Polynomial Slayer and her sidekick Aspen battle the forces of the Undead. (Did you know that vampires are great at factoring polynomials?) Chapter 9 takes readers into the world of Al-Jitsu where Master Li and his rash, young disciple use the gentle Way of the Fraction to take on the evil dojo vying for world domination. In Chapter 11 readers find out why polynomials are like a box of chocolates and travel with Jenni and Forrest on a Radical Roadtrip as they journey to The Summer of Quadratics. "The Monster Book of Algebra" can be used by readers to self-teach algebra, as each concept is clearly explained and comes with many reinforcing exercises. The book can also be used as engaging supplementary material to support a more traditional classroom algebra course. "The Monster Book of Algebra" is primarily intended for junior high and high school students. In addition, adult education students will find this book useful. The underlying math presented in the book is a complete and rigorous elementary algebra syllabus. Readers who work their way through the book and complete each exercise will learn algebra and actually have fun along the way!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our mission: to make math a fun part of kids' everyday lives. We all know it's wonderful to read bedtime stories to kids, but what about doing math? Many generations of Americans are uncomfortable with math and numbers, and too often we hear the phrase, "I'm just not good at math!" For decades, this attitude has trickled down from parents to their kids, and we now have a culture that finds math dry, intimidating, and just not cool. Bedtime Math wants to change all that. Inside this book, families will find fun, mischief-making math problems to tackle—math that isn't just kid-friendly, but actually kid-appealing. With over 100 math riddles on topics from jalapeños and submarines to roller coasters and flamingos, this book bursts with math that looks nothing like school. And with three different levels of challenge (wee ones, little kids, and big kids), there's something for everyone. We can make numbers fun, and change the world, one Bedtime Math puzzle at a time.
