Overview
How to be Good at Maths: The Simplest-Ever Visual Guide is a bold, colourful home-learning companion that turns tricky primary school maths into something genuinely enjoyable. Created with maths champion Carol Vorderman, this hardback guide breaks every topic down into clear, step-by-step visual sequences, from times tables to telling the time. It's designed to sit alongside the school curriculum, helping children build confidence through practice, repetition and brilliantly memorable examples that make numbers stick.

About the Book
Packed across 320 pages, this is one of DK's most popular educational titles, trusted by parents looking to support children through Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2 maths. Rather than dense text, every spread uses eye-catching graphics, diagrams and real-world scenarios to explain a concept — children zipwire through geometry, race a robot to work out decimals, and use intergalactic scales to explore weight and measurement on other planets. The visual, sequential approach means even abstract ideas like fractions, percentages and negative numbers become approachable and logical.

Topics are organised to build progressively, covering number and place value, addition and subtraction, multiplication and division, fractions, decimals, percentages, measurement, geometry, statistics and more. Fun facts, quick quizzes and extra challenges are woven throughout, giving children the chance to test and reinforce what they've learned. Because every concept is revisited with fresh examples, the book works equally well as a first introduction or as ongoing revision material at home, making it a flexible addition to any family bookshelf or homework routine.
