“This delightful book is the first of a two-part series intended for use with gifted students in third and fourth grades. Teachers who differentiate mathematics lessons, leaders of mathematics study groups, parents, and anyone who enjoys mathematics games and puzzles would find this book interesting. … Each problem chapter ends with a listing of ‘What I Learned in this Chapter’ which highlights for the students the mathematical skills they used.” (Mary Beth Rollick, MAA Reviews, October 17, 2021)
