Meet Walter

Walter is the Wacky Wonders Wizard. His wand is a magic pencil, and his owl, Professor Feathersnoot, causes half the trouble. When a spell goes wrong, only your math can fix it!

  • Math that tells a story. Each Spell Book has a 10-chapter story in the margins, and every picture your kids solve helps Walter save the day.
  • A picture appears. Solve the problems, color by the answer, and a mystery picture appears.
  • Made by a dad of 4. Every puzzle is checked by hand and by computer, so every answer works.
