Moose and the Math Fairy

Moose and the Math Fairy is about Lemma, a Math Fairy who helps those in need with math problems. She has a pet moose named Moose who is not math-minded and cannot be trusted with her magic walkie-talkie.

Lemma, the Math Fairy, has to go to the grocery store. While she is out, she hands Moose her magical walkie-talkie so he can handle Math. A loyal pet such as Moose is sure the task cannot be too difficult. A walkie-talkie call for assistance interrupts him before he can finish his thought. Conner, a young boy, needs help with math. As for Connor's homework, Moose could not understand the strange symbols and squiggles. On the walkie-talkie, Moose presses the purple button that erases all of the squiggles. Connor was even more confused now. Moose had already left by that time. Moose encountered Astra, the Star Fairy, crying that someone had removed the minus sign! In an attempt to solve the problem, Moose decided to make all of Star Fairy's charts and graphs disappear. It was a horrific sight for Astra. Moose thought he was solving everyone's problems well. However, Zeki at the Acorn Factory was stressed. There was something very wrong. Then Moose realized that all the problems people were experiencing all day were caused by numbers! Perhaps he should just get rid of them...

"No more numbers," he said into the walkie-talkie.

Chaos reigned, panic ruled, no numbers meant no math! Suddenly, Lemma's favorite thing was gone! At that moment, Moose felt...

It would be spoilerish of me to reveal all the details of the story and its ending.

The book ends with several math challenge problems for you to solve.

In my opinion, Moose and the Math Fairy is an excellent book. Children will find Moose's mishaps funny but also see how they lead to utter chaos. In addition to being educational, the book is entertaining. It is a book I recommend.
