In "Mysterious Bandits", children solve for variables in addition and subtration problems. And in "Land Grab", they learn how to sort objects into the sections of a Venn Diagram.The book is beautifully illustrated by artist Sally Blakemore (winner of the 2002 Children's Literature Award).This is the second book in the Card Game Roundup series. The first title features games for children in the K-2 age bracket.
