Introduction
The BBC School Radio series 'Maths - with a Story!' received high acclaim from publications such as the Times Educational Supplement, June 1984. This second software suite, like the first, has been inspired by the radio programmes. Aimed at children of a wide range of abilities and ages, the four delighful programs in this suite have been written to exacting standards and are beautifully presented, friendly in approach, carefully matched to a user's ability and thoroughly entertaining.
