Description
"This is the last arithmetic book. After you finish the 208 pages of this book you will be ready for pre-algebra. There are 33 chapters. Each chapter is a lesson. Just like Life of Fred: Fractions, after each five chapters you will come to The Bridge, which will give you a chance to show that you know the math before you move on tot he next chapter. The main danger in the Life of Fred books is that the readers enjoy them too much."--Page 6

Description
This book takes a slightly different approach. It tells a story -- a story of one day in the life of a five-and-a-half-year-old boy. All of the math arises out of Fred's life. All of it is motivated -- right down to when Fred is working at the PieOne pizza place, and he's trying to decide whether to put the tomatoes on the pizza before of after it's cooked and we get the commutative law. -- book (p. 8).
