[CR · Rating 3 out of 5]

This Garfield book about math was kind of boring and confusing. It had really hard words that even I at 12 had issues reading. I ended up having to get help for some of the names in the book. A pronunciation guide would have been beneficial in this one. I think it covered a large section of math as a topic but I don't think that even having a teacher go over this one with the class would work out well.
