This is a great book to supplement any homeschooling elementary math curriculum because it introduces some rather advanced topics in a way younger children can learn. By the end of the book, the author introduces algebraic expressions, but in a way that youngsters can understand.
Very complete coverage of division in an easy-to-follow, progressive approach that doesn't intimidate younger readers.
