	The author talks about her favorite math equations.

Wendy Lichtman decided to write a story for teens that suggested there might be some questions with more than one right answer.

With Do the Math: Secrets, Lies, and Algebra, viewers are introduced to Lichtman’s use of algebraic metaphor when she describes middle school from one character’s point of view: "We're spending a lot of time studying inequalities now, which makes sense, since who you're greater than (>) and who you're less than is kind of the point of the eighth grade."

During this live program, students are invited to call in to talk to the author about her latest books, the writing process, becoming a writer—whatever is on their minds. (See Preparing for the Program.)
