This book would be a good teaching tool for students just learning how to work with math problems. The illustrations are entertaining, I wish I had a book like this when I was a child. I enjoyed the word problems, and the fun set up of the problems. Teachers and students could take a fun problem a day out of the book and work it together. ( )

This book is a blast to read! It gives you math word problems in the form of a riddle and hilarious stories. I loved the way it had me figure out how much a poodle weighed while on the scale with his owner. And it also taught me an interesting trick on how to multiply by 9 by just using my fingers. There were also a letter exchange from cat and dog where they use numbers to make certain sounds, deciphering the letter was strange at first but then was a breeze and it didn’t even feel like math!These riddles made me forget that I was doing word problems and just made me excited to do mental math. It is rare for me to find math this fun and all while reading a book, it is a must in my future library! ( )

This is such a fun little book! There are eighteen riddles in this book which are cute and relate to math. One of the riddles goes like this: "Early One Morning"
The rooster crowed at 6:03/ The pig got up at 8:15. What time did Farmer Ben awake/ If he woke up halfway between/ The time the rooster and the pig/ Got out of bed? Oops...I forgot!/Ben waited 15 minutes more--/Until he smelled the coffeepot." The answer is at the bottom of the page. This is a great way to get kids motivated for and engaged in math. Can you figure it out? ( )

Arithmetickle uses riddles to make math fun. Readers would need some prior knowledge of certain math skills to figure out some of the riddles, but not all of them are so complex. ( )

This book includes 18 math riddles that are kid-friendly, yet challenging at times. Readers must use addition, subtraction, or multiplication to solve the rhyming word problems. For those who are stumped, or eager to find out if they cracked the riddle, the answers to each problem are provided. ( )
