Fun Book
I got this as a gift. It's a fun book but defiantly qualifies as a novelty item. A one time read, and then pass it along.

Simplistic
I was greatly disappointed in this book. The writing style was inconsistent and the layout was visually obnoxious. I mention this because if there was any useful information in this book, the presentation distracted from it incredibly.

The primary points in this book were elementary, and most people could be more creative and productive without this book. I would not recommend this book. If you have a good business plan, have a group of friends read it, take them out to dinner and brainstorm. You will have more fun, and get a better return on investment.

No Substance!
The author(s) of this book are obviously not Pontiac enthusiasts, it would not have taken very much time to have a knowledgable person proof read this short book. Most of the cars are not correct, missing trim, dirty or damaged. The opinions presented are shallow and without merit. There are a few good pictures of royal bobcat decals and a couple of reproduced Pontiac ads making the $12.00 purchase worthwhile to me, but this book is not a source of factual information, in fact I found it very annoying to read.

shallow research
I read this book in 2 hours, from start to finish. I expected the same dense and complete information as was provided by Paul Zazarine's book on the first generation GTO. Unfortunately this book is based on shallow, superficial and therefore insufficient research. It's a descriptive book, a photo album basically. It basically describes the interior, exterior and engine types of the 1964 to 1974 GTOs. Stuff that any reader could figure out if he or she stood next to a car and took a good look at it. There is very little information on the history or background info on the GTO. Where the author doesn't know the facts he'll just say "due to an unknown reason...".

However, the book contains some beautiful and glossy pictures of gtos. Here again, the work is poor. For example, when the book talks about the 1965 gto, there is only one picture of a 65 and the other photos in the 1965 model chapter are all of 1966 cars. Very few pictures of interiors or different options. There also is some repetitive information meaning that facts will be repeated several times on different pages.

Conclusion : a decent book for a first contact with the goat but for real buffs and people wanting to know more about its history, check out Paul Zazarine's work !

not so good (bad)
The first person is right this book does nothing for the parents,there is no way you can figure out what is going on unless you have had algebra before, no examples no help what so ever.

DO NOT USE THIS BOOK
These series have not examples to follow, no parent helps. No other books are taken home to show how to work the problems! Unless you (an adult) have extensive algebra training, forget this series.

not instructional
My daughter is being taught from this book. It has no instructions in it what so ever. When she brings it home for homework and unless you know algebra already it is totally useless. It is the most confusing book to work from. Some of the stories in it are not even relevant to the problem or the answers, which make it totally confusing for the student. My recomendation is not to purchase this book and if you school is using it, GO IMMEDIATELY TO THE SCHOOL BOARD AND DON'T TURN BACK!!
