Secrets of the Wizard (Paperback)

This book is a suspenseful fantasy for middle grade readers that has math puzzles woven throughout. The story tells of the adventures of the good wizard, Galimedes (a combination of the names, Galileo and Archimedes), and his two faithful helpers who must recover the lost scrolls of time and seasons. The story is packed full of action and suspense. Every page presents the reader with a math puzzle which must be solved correctly. The reason: the pages of the story are scrambled, and the answer to the math puzzle on each page reveals the number of the next page to be read. There is also a hidden secret message which can be found by stringing together the first letters on each of the pages when they are read in the correct order. Solving the puzzles makes for an adventure inside an adventure. Great for math teachers, tutors, and parents who want to inspire young people to see that math can be fun. A great gift for the young person who loves fantasies that present a challenge.
