Painless Pre-Algebra (Barron's Painless)

This book has been great for additional enrichment to my son's pre-algebra class. I homeschool him and it has really made a difference in how he sees and understands pre-algebra. I wouldn't use it as a stand alone unless you are using it for a refresher.

Love this book. Well written, easy to understand. Recomend

Easy to read and easy to understand. Tutorial made easy!

We are not too deep into this book, so I could not give it 5 stars. My 14 year old is struggling with Algebra, so I bought this book to help her. So far, the topics that she is learning in Algebra one are all in this pre-algebra book. I assign my daughter several pages to read and do before I get home from work each day, and she has been able to get them done with no help from me. This book explains the math in an easy to understand way. If you are a parent that struggles with math, this series of math books is exactly what you need to help your kids. Terms are defined, there are examples to follow, and then there are "brain busters" that give your child several problems to do. Answers to the practice problems are in the book, so you can check your child's work. Overall, I am satisfied with this book. It seems to be making a difference in my daughter's math skills. I also purchased Painless Algebra, but have not had to use it yet.

This helped my grandson study for his ISEE. Very helpful.
