This encouraging picture book about a boy struggling to memorise his multiplication tables teaches kids that everyone experiences challenges and that there are lots of different ways to learn!

This positive math story teaches kids that everyone learns differently, and that's ok!

Last to Finish in Math Class follows Max, who is convinced he will never succeed at memorising his multiplication facts. When it's time for a test, one by one, Max's classmates turn in their finished papers before the timer rings. Not Max. As soon as the teacher starts the timer, his heart begins to pound, his hands begin to sweat, and his brain freezes! He is always the last to finish...and sometimes the other kids tease him about it. Is Max the worst math student ever?

The Adventures of Everyday Geniuses series demonstrates various forms of learning, creativity, and intelligence. Each book introduces a realistic example of triumph over difficulty in a positive, humorous way that readers of all ages will enjoy!
