Kiss My Math: Showing Pre-Algebra Who's Boss

I love this book! Full of "tricks" to understand AND remember what you learn. I am a mother of two teenagers and reading this helped me remember what I had forgotten and to be able to explain to both my daughters.

This was purchased for my middle-school granddaughter. She found it very helpful last year for her math class. I would definitely recommend it very highly. A good way to show a young girl there's nothing wrong with being smart!

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"!!

I have the greatest grandaughter, K, but she does not love math I am hoping this will help her and her tutor. I saw Danica on a TV talk show and was so impressed with her and K needs a...not typical way to get her focused.

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!:-)

Math had not ever been a favorite subject of mine. After reading the first few chapters it was clear it had been how it was explained in the first place. This book is charming and very understandable. It helped make math fun for me.

My daughter is already on chapter 3 and we received this book on Friday (I'm trying not to swamp her with "extra" work). At first, she tried to tell me she remembered all about intergers, she did not read the first chapter and brought me the review exercises ALL WRONG. I told her to read the chapter and THEN do the work.

I was not surprised when she came back to me and said, "this isn't like a regular math book, it makes sense!" She's hooked now, and I'm so thankful that Danica is a smart, pretty girl who is down to earth and not afraid to be smart! It's difficult to find a solid roll model these days!

Danica has hit a homerun with this book that explain some of the more abstract ideas in math so a teen girl can understand it and not be embarrassed in class by teachers who say "I just went over that" to them in response to a question.

Great homework aid!
