This book DOMINATES!!!
Perhaps the finest piece of literature ever written, this book teaches you how to add words and that pop quizzes don't exist. I'll explain. If it's a pop quiz, it can't be on Friday because the kids will know it's coming. Then it can't be Thursday, because if they know it's not on Friday and they haven't had it yet, they'll know it's coming. Eventually, the kids eliminate the possibilities of a pop quiz altogther. Fab!
