Library Media Connection - Leslie Greaves Radloff

This well-written series shows everyday life applications for math and uses colorful illustrations, pictures, and graphs to appeal to students. Each topic in the series is carefully explained for the target audience, with examples to illustrate points. Size of text and font is suitable for this age group with uncluttered pages designed so that text is set off with the illustrations, graphs, or drawings placed vertically. Key words appear in bold. Science specialists and classroom teachers will be glad to have these. The series is a nice replacement for those old, tired, unattractive books that may be gathering dust on library shelves.
