| Title: The Toothpaste Millionaire |

This story is about a guy named
Rufus. He starts to make a toothpaste business because he knows he
will use math a lot in the business and Rufus is always good at math!
He starts the business and sells the toothpaste at a very low price
and before you know it, he's a millionaire. Everybody is buying Rufus'
toothpaste because people realize the price of toothpaste in stores
costs so much more then Rufus' toothpaste. He becomes very rich and
famous but at the end of the book, he gives up and decides to retire
and give the job over to his working buddy, Hector.
If I give this book a rating from 1
to 10, I would probably give it a 4 or 5. I really feel that it was
not exciting at all. It was just boring!
I would not recommend this book to those who like
exciting books. If you don't like exciting books and you like books
where there is not much action then this would be the book for you!
