      I bought this book for my son to keep him going through the summer. It was late, but the book itself has lots of room inside so that you can have your child show step by step how they solved it. If it had been on time, I would have given it 5 stars.

      its a good book untill you get stuck at 7.1 and nothing on the internet explains it any better

      It covers a good amount of subjects before a child starts algebra.

      it’s good for review, but because it presents one concept per page (or two) and then you do the related practice, there is no review of what you’ve learned at all later in the book. So, if this is just your review book, it’s ok. I just put a star at the top of pages where I’ve found a concept I don’t fully understand so I can come back to it later and a checkmark if I’ve mastered it. This way I can come back and review on my own. I’d recommend some sort of text as your primary book or this would be just fine if you learned this all years ago and just want to review. I wanted to be sure I’ve mastered everything, before working on Algebra again. What would make this perfect is if there were review sections scattered throughout and in the answers for the review have the page number where the concept was presented so we can go and review it again. This way we don’t just get into a grove of doing the practice, but not actually remembering it which is so easy to do with this format. It wouldn’t take that much to add this and take this from being an ok book to a great book, albeit a bit thicker. There’s only about 150 pages of sections of instruction and questions, but the answers in the back give full solutions to all questions unlike many books out there.

      Update: I just finished this book. It was great for just a couple pages a night before bed each night. There weren’t as many questions in some sections as I would have liked. At least one section only had two problems to do. So, a few more would be nice and at least some quiz sections periodically or something to be sure you didn’t forget something you covered. Now that I’ve finished this book, I am going to go back through with a separate sheet of paper and rework all the sections I didn’t quite understand before. I like the breadth of the sections in this book. It doesn’t cover any geometry which would have been nice, but it covered more than I thought it might for a book that only covers the “essentials”.

      Sometimes he only shows one way of doing things and it takes longer than another way I know, but I practiced his way since very occasionally it was quicker and gives me another tool to use–another reason to use more than one learning resource. With it’s fully worked answers in the back, if you don’t understand something, you can figure out where you went wrong which was wonderful. Also, I found all his explanations in each section easy to understand and do on my own.

      Recommended. I’ve already bought a couple of his other workbooks, though I might not write in the books so that reviewing sections later is easier. If there had been adequate review sections that wouldn’t have been so necessary. Again, these aren’t reasons not to buy, but a way the author could make it even better.

      I learned about these from “The Math Sorcerer” channel on YouTube

      bought this for my 8th grader to review before starting algebra, ultimately retuned it, as the content looked a little basic…could be a great book if that’s what you’re looking for, I’d say it looks more like a 6th grade review….pre-prealgebra. For context, my 8th grader homeschools, using a mostly video/on-line program, and with math I wanted her to have some pen-paper application, so I was looking for a review before starting algebra I.
