Actress and math genius Danica McKellar continues to shatter the "math nerd" stereotype by showing girls how to ace middle school math--and actually feel cool doing it! With Danica's trademark sass and style, this book tackles algebra: the most feared of all math classes and the most common roadblock to high school graduation. McKellar instantly puts her readers at ease, showing teenage girls--and anyone taking algebra--how to feel confident and master square roots, polynomials, quadratic equations, word problems and more, without breaking a sweat (or a nail).--From publisher description.

Some good content submitted by mgabbieb on June 11, 2022, 9:07am This book covers a lot of algebra content in a quick and straightforward way. I get what this book is trying to do in terms of making math feel approachable for female students, I just think it’s a bit outdated and leans too much into stereotypes. As a math teacher, I don’t think that I would send a student to borrow this book and study it on their own. But there are definitely sections that I would share.
