Math Curse is a children's picture book written by Jon Scieszka and illustrated by Lane Smith.

Published in 1995 through Viking Press, the book tells the story of a student who is cursed by the manner in which mathematics is connected to everyday life.

A class treat of cupcakes becomes a study in fractions, while a trip to the store turns into a problem of money.

Finally, she is left painstakingly calculating how many minutes of "math madness" will be in her life now that she is a "mathematical lunatic."

It was directed by Collins, and the cast included Kerry Lacy, Thomas Colby, Will Moran, Andrew David James, and Emily Marver.
