On Monday, Mrs. Fibonacci points out to the main character that everything can be seen as a math problem. The next day, her morning turns into a math problem where she has to figure out how much time it will take her to get dressed and make the bus. She can't eat her breakfast because she doesn't want to have to count the flakes in the bowl. Her class becomes a multiplication problem using arrays. A problem develops in P.E., English, Art, and just about every subject. It gets to the point where she thinks that she is "raving math lunatic." She even ends up going to bed without dinner because her dinner becomes a true/false test about the potatoes. She even dreams about math problems, until she is able to create a hole, and get out. She wakes up Wednesday morning, and it able to solve the problems.
I read this book to my class, and they loved it. They got really excited about the math problems, and didn't want to stop. I thought the illustrations were funny, and added to the book. I recommended this book to the other teachers.
