My same age kid is reading this series called Math Monsters. I found them in the non-fiction section of the children's library in the math area. The books are very interesting, easy to read, have charachters and plots, and explain math concepts through story telling. Each book is a quick read, maybe less than an hour. It's for grades k-2. Here's a link so you can see them. I had no idea they had videos. I've just seen the books they had in the library.

Also if you haven't gone to bedtime math. Com yet they'll email you a word problem every day. Sometimes I use it as is, sometimes I change them but they definitely get used.
