Last year, actress and math genius Danica McKellar made waves nationwide, challenging the βmath nerdβ stereotypeβand giving girls the tools to ace tests and homework in her unique just-us-girls style. Now, in Kiss My Math, McKellar empowers a new crop of girlsβ7th to 9th gradersβtaking on the next level of mathematics: pre-Algebra.
Stepping up not only the math, but also the sass and style, Kiss My Math will help math-phobic teenagers everywhere chill out about math, and finally βgetβ negative numbers, variables, absolute values, exponents, and more. Each chapter features:
β’ Step-by-step instruction β’ Time-saving tips and tricks β’ Illuminating practice problems with detailed solutions β’ Real-world examples β’ True stories from Danicaβs own life as a student and actress
