Dislike the title - it put me off for a while. But, "don't judge a book by its cover." A parent mentioned this book to me and said it was given to her daughter who had some interindividual problems with math - math was not her best subject. The mom offered to copy a few pages for me. However, I decided to be a good citizen and purchase this for my use in teaching my fifth grade class this year. What a gold mine! Like - This is a very pragmatic book. Teenagers can read it and look at the examples and make their way through their math curriculum. There is also some good common sense ideas for test taking. Love - The student whose "uncle" purchased this book for her has done us all a favor. I have used some of the "cheerleading" quotes to encourage my class as they enter the season of test-taking. The student for whom this book was purchased has totally turned around her attitude in math and is generally a better student in class and on the playground! She has an A in math this trimester;)Read full review
Great Book- written in a way that makes it interesting and so easy to understand. I'm glad I have a daughter, not a son, in middle school because I'm not so sure my son would love this book as much! It is definitely aimed towards young girls but either way, her explanations & understanding of math makes it easy for anyone to stay interested and grasp.

Amazing book I'm so happy I bought it because it has helped my daughter come along way I also love how she also shows ways to do things because my daughter has autism and dyslexia so photos and stuff help a lot! Very happy :)

I love this book, as the mother/teacher of a homeschooled 7th grader this book provides invaluable information. I have always loved math and algebra always came easy to me but my daughter did not feel the same way. I saw this book in the book store and it looked like something my daughter would actually enjoy. It has personality quizzes and horoscopes. Before bying the book, I got it out of the library. It was so good, we needed to buy it. Danica explains math unlike anything I've ever seen, she even improved the way I think of Math. It is a great book to look back on for reference.
Easy read. Great value.
