2.0 out of 5 stars Not as good as Super Smart, March 8, 2009

This review is from: Super Smart Math: 180 Warm-Ups and Challenging Activities, Grades 5-8 (Paperback)

I bought this book once I saw how great Super Smart was. This one is not nearly as great and leaves much to be desired. It has some great math problems in it, but you have to search for them and it's not quick access like the other book.
