By the time my grandson was just under 5 years old, I had managed to teach him an inordinate amount of complex math concepts (certainly complex for a 5-yr old), some of which would be considered by childhood-development experts to be quite impossible for such a tender mind to grasp.

For example, by the age of 5, he was taught to:
- verbalize any number up to 36 digits long, giving you the decillion, nonillion, octillion, septillion, sextillion, quintillion, quadrillion, trillion, billion, million, thousand, and hundred in the number;
- identify fractions as "proper" or "improper", and reason out which fraction was greater or lesser, and by how much;
- correctly distribute given items based on simple ratios of 1:2, 2:3, 3:7, 4:7, etc. For example, if asked to divide 50 items in the ratio 2:3, he would correctly specify that one person would get 20 items and the other person would get 30 items;
- and many other math concepts.

This book details my efforts at initiating this successful very early childhood education program for my grandson, which involved basic literacy, logical thinking and math reasoning starting from an extremely young age. It is my hope that this book helps you to do the same for your child.

This book is geared towards several audiences:
The earlier sections are for: (a) prospective parents and new parents/grandparents who want to give their infant child a huge jump-start on his/her education; (b) the parents of the pre-K child that needs a helping hand with math.
The later sections are for ; (a) the young student in elementary or middle school, who has reading skills but has difficulty with basic math; (b) anyone who wants a quick review of basic math.

This book will serve a child well for several years of his/her school life.
