Stop the "I'm Not Good at Math" Narrative Before It Starts.
Most children don't struggle with math because they lack the ability-they struggle because they lack a hero. In The Girl Who Loved Math, your child will discover the true story of Dr. Euphemia Lofton Haynes, the first Black woman to earn a Ph.D. in Mathematics.
Euphemia didn't just solve equations; she shattered glass ceilings. In a world that tried to "track" her into a limited future, her brilliance paved a path for every child who has ever been told "no."
More Than a Story: A Complete Math-Confidence Toolkit Inside.
We believe a child should move immediately from inspiration to action. That's why we've included a "Math Genius" Activity Suite directly at the end of the book-giving your child a full educational resource at no extra cost.
What's Inside the Bonus Activity Section:
- The Euphemia Life-Story Crossword: A fun way to reinforce the history and vocabulary of her incredible journey.
- Graduation Day Dot-to-Dot: Connect the dots to reveal Euphemia in her historic graduation cap and gown.
- The Pioneer Problem-Set: Targeted addition, subtraction, and fraction questions designed to build core skills.
- The "Math Everywhere" Prompt: A special section that trains your child's brain to see the beauty and logic of math in their everyday lives.
By the time you reach the final page, your child won't just know who Euphemia Haynes was-they will believe they can follow in her footsteps.
Perfect for: Parents, teachers, and librarians looking to diversify STEM bookshelves and inspire a love for logic and history.
