I believe the same what I believe for IIT JEE books, "Right books at wrong time and wrong books at right time is equally harmful, rather it should be right books at right time" Beginner Level
- Mathematical Circles : Fomin - This is gem of a book, very good for beginneers but should be read in guidance of a teacher or family member who is well versed in Mathematics. One can start reading this book since class VIIIth.
- Problem solving techniques : Arthur Engel - Another beautiful book, must read after Mathematical Circles
- An Excursion in Mathematics : Modak - Good collection of problems and much enjoyable to get the required variety to enhance understanding of problem solving for Olympiad.
- Geometry Revisited - Coxeter
- Challenges and thrill of pre-college mathematics -
Algebra- Higher Algebra - Hall and Knight
- Higher Algebra - Bernard and Child (difficult book - to be used after Hall & Knight)
Combinatorics- Shaum Series - Combinatorics & Graph theory
- Introductory Combinatorics - Brualdi
Number theory- Number theory - Burton ( This book is very nice to begineers)
- Number theory - Niven & Zukerman (This is very nice for advanced)
