I recommend The Cartoon Guide to Calculus. It breaks down hard to grasp concepts such as infinitesimals in a very visual way. I unfortunately came across the book after I had finished my Calculus series but regardless, I found it to be very entertaining all while teaching the subject.
The Cartoon Guide to Calculus
You might want to check out The Cartoon Guide to Calculus. It does unfortunately expect you to know some Trig, but if you're just looking for an overview of the topic this is a great place to start. It's written and drawn in a very straightforward and humorous way and it's about as far as you can get stylistically from a text book.
Limits (the foundation of calculus) are described in an intuitive way, as are derivatives and integrals. So even if you couldn't do any of the actual math yet, you'd still be able to understand the concepts.
I just ordered this book its a cartoon book about calculus. I know I have to go over new concepts again and again. I can't memerize everything in one day either. Im hoping that a cartoon book about calculus every weekend for a month will help. I know I can't re read a dry calc book just for fun.
