The book is well organized, starting with beginning counting and continuing through the basic arithmetic operations to some geometry and probability. All ideas are clearly explained and readily accessible to adults and children. One of my favorite parts of the book is the number of fun and engaging activities. How I would have loved to have had some of Chris' suggestions to use when my own children were growing up. I have bought copies of this book for my several grandchildren, a great niece and great nephew and for the daughter of a young friend of mine. I highly recommend Kitchen Table Math as a way to help children love working with numbers and recognize that math is a fun and natural part of the world." - Molly J. Robinson, retired elementary school, junior high and college teacher "Some of my finest childhood memories are of when my mother rewarded me for good behavior by taking me to our upstairs closet to do a math workbook together. The books had mathematical activities, puzzles, and games, and developed an enjoyment and thirst for mathematical challenges that has persevered to this day. Dr. Wright's Kitchen Table Math Book 1 is probably the best book around today with such uses." - James Choi, Director of Mathematics of Sabio Academy
