Overview:
This Usborne two-book collection brings together the Illustrated Dictionary of Maths (a modern edition) and the Junior Illustrated Maths Dictionary, delivering a clear, visual approach to maths terminology that supports learners from KS2 through GCSE and beyond. The Illustrated Dictionary of Maths is designed as a bright, accessible reference for students preparing for SATs and GCSEs, with four main sections that span the national curriculum—from algebra to APRs, volume to vectors, and trigonometry to transformation. It features a comprehensive glossary of maths terms and symbols and even includes internet-links to extend learning beyond the page. Complementing it, the Junior Illustrated Maths Dictionary explains key concepts from KS2 upwards, offering explanations alongside worked examples, hints, shortcuts, and strategies to help learners progress with confidence. Together, these two titles form a cohesive, visually engaging maths reference suite that supports independent study, homework help, and targeted revision.

With vivid illustrations, practical examples, and accessible language, the set reduces confusion, speeds up revision, and builds maths confidence—making it a trusted companion for parents, tutors, and students aiming to excel in SATs, GCSEs, and everyday maths challenges.
