| Painless Fractions (Painless Series) by Barron's Educational Series Not as good as "Painless Algebra" but |
| still tons better than your average, run-of-the-mill, text book book! I was so looking forward to this book after buying Painless Algebra (which I gave five stars...that's a TERRIFIC book!)thinking it would be just as good. With "...Algebra" I was able to read and understand what they were talking about once or twice and do the exercises/brain ticklers fairly easily. With this book, I find myself having to go back, several times, to grasp what they are saying in order to complete them. Again..much, much better than the ordinary text book and I would recommend this to anyone who struggles with fractions ~ whether it's for a child just learning this or an adult who wants to conquer it! |
| Painless Fractions (Painless Series) by Barron's Educational Series not painless |
| Other than drawing a couple of cartoon characters, there was nothing that made this painless. i was looking for a book that would help older kids get over their aversion to fractions. this was not it. |
| Painless Fractions (Painless Series) by Barron's Educational Series This book Rules! Get it! |
| This book is a wonderful Math book, you will love Math after getting it. I highly Recommend buying this one. |
| Painless Fractions (Painless Series) by Barron's Educational Series Explained in simple terms... |
| I would recommend this book to children struggling with fractions, or even to adults who struggled with fractions when they were learning them as kids. The author makes it about as simple as it can be made. The only thing better would be to hire a private tutor. If you go through this book one step at a time, and practice at each level, you should learn a lot. I bought this book because I started a math club at my son's school. I plan to let the children borrow it as needed. |
| Painless Fractions (Painless Series) by Barron's Educational Series Magnifico!! |
| What an absolute charm! I used this book in my "at home studies" with my two pre-high school daughters. The book is so simply written and easily understandable. My daughters are grasping the concept of fractions as never before. This book is indispensable! BRAVO! |
| Painless Fractions (Painless Series) by Barron's Educational Series Product Description |
