3^2/1.41421356237^2 stars.
The reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that it is too short. There is almost no one under 8 years that can do 3^2/1.41421356237^2 without a calculator without good memory. This book is very funny. For example, a person's soul is called ka. What do you want to see if your money was stolen? A police-ka. What's a pirate's favorite subject at school? Arrrrrrrrrrrrt! Which queen was the best at football? Anne because she got the Boleyn(ball in).

Im a big Horrible Histories fan but this book wasn't even funny. The jokes are all taken from the main book and work well in a main books but not as a single book
