Math books for fun reading?


Recommended Posts

I know I've seen threads here containing recommended books for kids who want to read math books for fun, but I can't find them right now.

 

So ... if you have a 9 y/o bright math student who wants to ponder math concepts, what books would you get her? She takes Beast Academy with her for her bedtime reading. She's already read and loved the Penrose books. She has enjoyed Life of Fred.

 

Any favourites for me?

My older is reading Number Freak now which was recommended by Quark in one of the threads.

It ended with a rabbit trail on Meyer Briggs personality types because the possible permutation was listed in the book and my kid wants to know what type he is.

I just showed this one to her, and she's completely excited -- this is right up her alley. Thanks! 

 

(My poor budget.)
