Wondering why your homework takes so long and why your maths books seem to take up all the room in your bag? Desperate Measures can help you work out why! This murderously funny book is packed with mathematical measures… and more chuckles than you can count! Find out what happens when Pongo serves Veronica with rocket fuel soup and how Dolly Snowlips causes the gangsters to lose their trousers, how dense you are! See why a horse needs hands! And gasp as the Gollarks get to grips with Length, Area and Volume in the brave attempt to defeat an alien invasion from the planet Zog! Gulp!

Ever wondered how to:

• weigh a bogie
• fit 35 students into a small car
• make an angle of 1 degree
• measure Roman miles with one stilletoe shoe?
