A tremendous resource, let's get it back in print!

I teach math in a GED program for adults returning to school to finish their high school educations. I came across Where Do I Put... when I was looking for books to help students with paralyzing math anxiety. Of all the books I found on this subject in the library, this was by far the most user friendly and practical. Since then, I found a used copy that I have shared with many students and colleagues. One of them who calls this book "her Bible," gives it full credit for raising her GED math score by 25% and helping her to pass the test with flying colors. My only regret is that this book is out of print. I hope that the publisher (Avon Books) does something about that soon.
