Maths

The Numberland Tales is a series of adventure stories in which the hero Danny learns multiplication tables. The stories are graded to suit the age range of children at each stage of the learning process, so the two times table is a simple story, whereas the four times table is suitable for older children. They aren't intended to teach tables as such, but to add interest and to show that tables have practical value.

Ice Cream and Spiders Two times table

Cakes and Butterflies Five times table

The Queen of Tentown Ten times table

Blarts and Bogies Three times table

The Four wishes Four times table

"I am a homeschooling mom of 3 (ages 8,9 and 10), and I found your stories on the internet after much searching for a way to help my 9-year-old daughter learn multiplication. She just didn't "get it" until we started reading your stories. She and her younger brother love them. It makes learning times tables fun."

So, a big, gigantic thankyou from me and my kids. Christina from Canada
