The Elementary Series was written for those who are not yet in at least the fifth grade.

Start with Life of Fred: Apples if your child does not know the addition tables cold.

Start with Life of Fred: Goldfish if your child does not know the multplication tables cold.

Each of the books contains so much more than just doing math facts.  We cover many different topics.  (This true in all of the Life of Fred books.)
