Do multiplication facts look like a jumble of numbers to you?
Does the thought of memorizing all those answers make you blue?
Well, there's no need to fret.
This book will teach you a song you won't soon forget.
It's called "The Multiplication Rap"
And it makes multiplying a snap!
Join Mr. Mathias Whiz and his students as they learn a new song.
The rhymes are catchy, so be prepared to sing along.
But, most of all, just have fun and relax,
And let the power of song help you with the multiplication facts.
The amusing rhymes and vibrant, comical illustrations of The Multiplication Rap are sure to delight and entertain readers as they learn the times tables.

When Hope Dalvay read Anne of Green Gables at the age of ten, she knew she had found her BFF (her Best Fictional Friend) in Anne Shirley. Later, Hope turned her daydreaming habit into a passion for writing middle-grade children's novels (Welcome to Camp Fill-in-the-Blank and My Year as a Space Cadet) and an educational picture book (The Multiplication Rap). Her short story "In Search of Kindred Spirits" (The ANNEthology) is an expression of Hope's heartfelt gratitude to the friend and to the book that made her a forever reader.
