Product Description
“Everybody who goes to school does homework. You are not alone. And they feel just as sick as you do when they have to do it.” Trevor Romain knows how horrible homework can be, and kids will see this right away as they page through this book, grin at the cartoons, and smile at Trevor’s funny insights. Meanwhile, they’ll discover valuable truths and pointers about homework: “People who say homework is a waste of time don’t know what they are talking about. “The best way to get your homework done without feeling sick every time you see it is to just do it.” Kids will also learn how to make a homework schedule, when to do the hardest homework (first!), the benefits of doing homework, and more - serious suggestions delivered with wit and humour because laughter makes learning fun.

You know the phrase, “A spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down.” Well, this book gives a spoonful of laughter to help the homework “go down” without “throwing up.” The clever use of artwork and text really gets kids involved in getting the job done instead of spending so much time complaining. There are many practical ideas and they are presented in a highly motivational way. I suggest reading it with children and discussing it rather than just handing them the book.

My 11 year old son rolled his eyes when I handed him this book. I came back a half an hour later and he had finished it! He was so excited and told me so many things on how he can do his homework better. He said it was very funny also. He learned a lot and really enjoyed the book!

I bought this for help with my 6.5-year-old since he finally has homework and has been giving us a hard time. Its written for an older child to use as a guide, so wasn’t all that helpful at this stage. Maybe in a few years it will be, dunno.

I love this product. It gives my fine hair the stand and volume I need. Would not want to miss it. I tried other brands, but the Nioxin works best for me.
