Industry Reviews "The illustrations are slightly crazed, which is just right." New Yorker - Sara Mosle (11/27/1995)
"Mr. Scieszka and Mr. Smith again appear in fine fettle, their new book characterized by zany typography, razor wit, breakneck pacing and their signature motif: plenty of sharp little teeth." New York Times Book Review - Amy Edith Johnson (11/12/1995)
"An ideal book for the child or adult who hates math, or the child or adult who loves math. I can't imagine that anyone would find this book anything but marvelous." Boston Book Review - Tim Moses (12/19/1995)
"This isn't coating math with fun to make it palatable, it's genuine math as genuine fun..." Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books - Deborah Stevenson (10/19/1995)
