Praise for this book

My favorite part of Maya and Ramon was that the characters worked together. They all did math and I got to help them. - Lisa, Age 6


I would have loved to have a MathXplorers program at my school. Not only is the product beautifully created, the quality of the mathematical content itself makes MathXplorers such

a great addition to any K-2 program. - Mia Betty, Retired Elementary School Principal


We need to change educators' mindset from "can" to "how" "How" did he count 5... rather than

"Can" he count to 5? - Aileen, Associate Director at AIMS Center for Math and Science Education


"I never thought the kids would have so much fun playing and learning about math. It was great to see them work together and build math activities with their hands!" - Christie S. FORT HOOD, MISSOURI
