MathStart books, created by Stuart Murphy, tell stories every kid can relate to and enjoy, while helping them understand that math is much more than a school subject—it’s all around us and in everything we do!

Each book in the MathStart series includes suggestions for group or individual exercises that reinforce math concepts presented in the story, easy-to-do activities, and a bibliography of children’s books that feature similar math concepts.
