Description
Bethany's dream of becoming a Math Olympian has been years in the making. With only three hours to solve five questions, she'll stop at nothing to achieve her goal.
Despite facing numerous challenges, including bullying and a lack of support from her mother, Bethany perseveres with the help of innovative mentors who inspire her love of learning. As she trains to become a world-champion "mathlete", she discovers that mathematics is not just about memorizing formulas, but about problem-solving and uncovering patterns.
Through her journey, Bethany shatters the stereotype that only boys can excel in math, finding a sense of purpose that allows her to make an extraordinary contribution to society. This inspiring story showcases the power of determination and creativity in overcoming obstacles and achieving greatness.
