Math DOESN’T suck!

That's the message provided by Danica McKellar, the erstwhile Winnie Cooper from "The Wonder Years".

That’s right: Math DOESN’T suck!


In Math Doesn’t Suck, internationally known actress and bonafide math genius Danica McKellar — called a “math superstar” by The New York Times — rips the lid off the myth that math “sucks,” helping to show that math can be easy, relevant, and even glamorous—while providing the tools needed to ace the next big math test!

With Danica as a personal tutor and coach, even the most frustrated student will finally “get” fractions, decimals, rates, ratios, proportions, “solving for x,” and more — the very concepts that, if not fully understood in middle school, have been proven to cause continued problems throughout high school and beyond.

Check out the official Math Doesn’t Suck Web site for more info including a full solution guide for the book, a forum and why you shouldn’t hide your smarts from the boys!

And while you’re at it … you can pre-order Danica’s new book Kiss My Math: Showing Pre-Algebra Who’s Boss today!
