The Maths Adventurers Go Bowling cover

Join two friendly and funny robots, Beep and Boots, as they learn all about fractions and discover that maths is everywhere they look.

Introduce 5-7 year olds to fractions through an adventure story featuring two robots as they play ten-pin bowling, with characterful illustrations and rhyming text that bring Beep and Boots to life.

Children will love seeing the adventures the robot duo go on, as they learn key mathematical concepts concerning fractions in a gentle, fun way. A visual glossary and maths questions at the end of the book reinforce learning and encourage kids to look at the maths they can see in the world around them.

This fun and educational maths book for children offers:

  • A fun and engaging introduction to fractions for children aged 5-7 with lively illustrations and rhyming text.
  • Core maths topics taught throughout the series, including shapes, time, measurements, division and fractions.
  • Illustrations that are in a non-gendered colour palette, making the traditionally male subject relatable for all genders.


Beep and Boots are competing with their friends in a ten-pin bowling competition. After they’ve worked out the best way to split into teams, the game is on! Who will knock down half the pins on their first go? Will anyone manage three-quarters of the pins? Watch Beep and Boots as they become brilliant bowlers – and learn lots about fractions.

At DK, we believe in the power of discovery. So why stop here?

The Maths Adventurers series uses everyday scenarios to show how maths is all around us, making this difficult subject more accessible.
