The illustration seems to mostly be a bunch of cartoonish impressions of snaggle-toothed idiots. I do not know why this was thought to be necessary.

This informative book, geared toward middle school students, uses familiar situations in explaining the relevance and importance of knowing how to use measurements in time, distance, and speed. It includes helpful organizational sections such as a detailed table of contents, answer keys to problems, and index. These tools allow readers to find information quickly without reading the entire book. Although simplistic in style, this book is a good reference to extend the school curriculum.
