If you are looking for a counting book, this one is not suitable. This "mathematical curse" is more about guiding mathematical thinking, and throughout it is to let children understand that "there is mathematics everywhere in life." Discover mathematics in life and keep trying to think with mathematical thinking.

This book is a hardcover book, and it is very satisfying to hold it in your hand. There is a whirlpool on the cover, and a child is floating in the whirlpool. The four scarlet letters of the mathematical curse are very big and eye-catching. The language style is unrestrained, and drawing is meaningless. On the surface, it doesn't look like a math book. The contents include addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, charts, unit conversion, fractions, Maya numbers, square roots and so on. From the content alone, I think this span is too big for children below primary school to understand. But in fact, the focus of this book is not to let children learn the knowledge points of mathematics, but to pay attention to it-mathematics is everywhere in life, and this serious subject of mathematics is placed in front of children in a relaxed form.

Just like the children in the book, because the math teacher said that "life is full of math". He began to feel that he was under the spell of mathematics. From getting up, clothes in the closet, milk and cereal, classmates sharing cakes and drawing with their fingers, to physical education class and Chinese class, the little boy found that mathematics is really everywhere. Finally, after thinking, he finally broke the math spell, and he can easily deal with some places that need math in his life, such as planning his schedule before going to school every day, getting up at 7: 15, spending 10 minutes dressing, 15 having breakfast, 1 brushing his teeth, and 7: 4/kloc.

This book is like a child's teacher, slowly guiding young readers to pay attention to the ubiquitous mathematical concepts in life. In the book, the little boy found that the idea of mathematics is the first door to mathematical exploration. Many times, interest is a key to explore the treasure house of knowledge. How to make mathematics interesting and explain mathematical concepts in easy-to-understand language is the key to arouse the interest of beginners. This is also the attraction of this book.
