This product helped my grand daughter who was having math difficulty better understand math concepts. She was having fun at the same time.

This is an awesome book. However it was a bit of a challenge for most of my students. But they really got into it...especially my boys.

I was hoping this book would help reach more learners, but it is a standard word problem resource with below average "comics" on each page. My students are not inspired at all by the jokes, though younger students might be.The word problems are no better than those in any standard textbook and in fact are probably much worse than those in more current textbooks. They are good for basic skills drill, but not much more. If you are looking for math problems that are truly inspired by comic strips, the NCTM monthly magazines provide excellent and thought-provoking problems.

I used this book with my math students and they liked it. The comics are cute, but most of all, the math problems are very good and makes kids think. I recommend this book for grades 4 - 7.

I've seen this book and others like it and enjoy finding cartoons to put on tests or worksheets to help ease the mood. I've had teachers that used this technique and it helped me relax while I was working. A great way to show your students your funny bone.
