    Excellent. However, slightly obtuse for the average reader. har har har

    Part of a series of fun, Medieval adventure stories that introduce mathematical concepts for young readers. This one introduces acute, obtuse, and right angles, as well as the concept of parallel lines.

    Really cute - I love the explanation for "a cute" angles and "pair of Lell's"!

    Not as creative and effective as the others, but this is to help kids remember the difference between acute and obtuse angles and the difference between a 90 & 180 degree angle. Also, this does an okay job of explaining how to use a protractor and includes one for the reader to keep.

    I like how this book discusses acute angles, right angles, and obtuse angles. I also like Sir D'Grees. I cannot say enough how clever she is! Awesome! :)

    I loved this book. It is about a young boy going out on an adventure. Through out the book it has a great review for math around a 4th or 5th grade level. It reviews right angles, obtuse angles, and acute angles. I believe that including literature in math is important and this is a great book to do it with.

    Young Radius wants to be a knight and he goes on a journey to rescue the king. He succeeds by using his intelligence and his medallion, getting knighted for his efforts.I thought the math puns in this book were very funny. They were a bit corny at times but the "Pair of Lells" one at the end was pretty good.Aside from using this book in an elementary school classroom for a brief geometry lesson I would use this even in a junior high or high school classroom for student having trouble with geometry terms. The puns used in this story would be very helpful for remembering what each term means.
