This is book five in the Math Kids series written by David Cole. It is self-contained and works well as a standalone, so it is not necessary to have read the previous books in the series. Like the others, the story combines math and science problems with real-world applications. However, how this book differs is that the subject matter is a little more serious including touching on parental abuse and abuse of police power. Having read and loved the previous books I was exicted to read this one and loved the exercpt for book six, which I cannot wait for. I highly recommend this book to children in middle grades, especially those who have an interest in math and science. #TheMathKidsAnIncorrectSolution #NetGalley

Incidents of parental bullying by a police officer, and abuse of own child. A policeman who is abusing his child Robbie, falsely accuses Mr Miller’s son of speeding in order to intimidate Mr Miller from giving Robbie poor grades in school. A believable story for an 11 year old, good story line and kept the reader engaged.
