Superb book for teenage girls! September 17, 2008

My 13-yr-old daughter struggles with math and doesn't apply herself. With this book, she enjoys learning and it sticks with her. Great job, Danica!
A Must-Read for Kids, Parents, and Teachers September 16, 2008

This book is written in an incredibly easy and fun format that will engage teenagers and provide lots of creative ideas for anyone trying to take the fear and mystery out of algebra. Even the most math phobic person will understand the concepts and probably even discover that math truly is fun. I use it for both my own children and my students. Well worth every penny and so is the companion book "Math Doesn't Suck"!!

Both of Danica's books are incredible! My daughter absolutely loves them! She's always had a hard time with math but with these books it's amazing how much they help!! If your girl has a hard time with math, don't wait, just buy these books!:-)

I'm reading this book with my 12 year old daughter and it's as fun as a fiction book. She is learning (and it's a good review for me). I highly recommend it.
 Kiss My Math (parent's view) September 9, 2008

Any book that can get a group of 7th graders talking about math is something unique, so Kiss My Math has my vote for that point alone. br / br /Working with middle school aged girls on math and science is often a difficult task in schools, so after hearing an interview and reading a review of Danica McKellar's book, I decided to order a copy for my 12 year old daughter--who has had her trials with math in the past year. I was surprised to see her take the book to a friend's house recently, and asked her later whether they had actually read any of it. She gave me one of those looks I get so frequently now that she is an adolescent, and smiled back, "we really loved her examples of how to do math problems, and spent most of the afternoon going through the book." Needless to say, that was a first. I would recommend that parents take a look at the chapters to make sure Danica isn't sharing some deep, dark secrets about boys that you don't want your daughter to learn (there weren't any I found to be objectionable). It might be a book to have in every middle school library (several copies) as recommended reading.....
