From Booklist:
Gr. 1-3. Gary tries to avoid a boring family reunion with a plea to stay home and do his math homework, but his mother decides that he can do his work at the reunion. Assigned to make a bar graph, a line graph, and a pie graph, he gathers data on how many people like each kind of salad; whether they wipe their mouths on napkins, their sleeves, or their hands; and what their hair color (really) is. When Gary's cousins help with the detective work, the family reunion unexpectedly becomes fun. The clarity of the graphs makes the math lesson clear, while the sly humor of the narrative is disarming, even for those with math anxiety. Cole's cartoon-style drawings, tinted with colorful washes, reflect the light tone of the text. An upbeat story as well as curriculum reinforcement from the All Aboard Math Reader series.
