"The emphasis in this series is on teaching math skills rather than telling a story. ... teachers find the series useful as a supplement when teaching these particular concepts. ... Polygon especially encourages students to use problem-solving techniques to discover patterns rather than simply spouting off formula after formula. Kerr's comic-style illustrations add humor while clarifying puzzling questions. Chapter headings are clever ... a fun way to get some extra practice or additional coverage on specific math topics" --Heather Christensen, VOYA, February, 2009
