Many generations of Americans are uncomfortable with math and numbers, and too often we hear the phrase, "I'm just not good at math!" For decades, this attitude has trickled down from parents to their kids, and we now have a culture that finds math dry, intimidating, and just not cool. Bedtime Math wants to change all that. Inside this book, families will find fun, mischief-making math problems to tackle―math that isn't just kid-friendly, but actually kid-appealing. With over 100 math riddles on topics from jalapeños and submarines to roller coasters and flamingos, this book bursts with math that looks nothing like school. And with three different levels of challenge (wee ones, little kids, and big kids), there's something for everyone. We can make numbers fun, and change the world, one Bedtime Math puzzle at a time.

This is a new edition of “The Tale of Solomon Owl,” originally published in 1917 by Grosset & Dunlap Publishers, New York.

If you happened to catch Solomon Owl resting among the thick hemlocks near the foot of Blue Mountain, where he lives, you will think that he looks strangely like a human being. He has no “horns,” or ear-tufts, such as some of the other owls wear; and his great pale face, with its black eyes, makes him seem very wise and solemn. But there is another very interesting thing about him: he has lots of forest friends. One of the most important things a parent can do for their child’s education is to read to them. Arthur Scott Bailey’s books will hold the child’s interest, expand their intelligence and foster their love of reading. But just a few words would be enough to describe Bailey’s beautiful books: Charming, sweetly humorous, simply and well-written children’s books. About the Author: Arthur Scott Bailey was born in Vermont on November 15, 1877. He was an American writer, intellectual and author of more than forty children's books, including the famous “Tuck-Me-In Tales,” the “Sleepy-Time Tales,” and the “Slumber-Town Tales.” One of his most admirable qualities was the fact that he never used language that talked down to children; instead, he frequently used words beyond their average vocabulary in an effort to broaden their knowledge. Bailey was a graduate of Harvard. He died on October 17, 1949.
