Aparna Parikh, Program Director for the GI Medical Oncology Program at Mass General Brigham, shared a post by Lina Chopra Haldar, Researcher, Evaluator, Curriculum Developer, Math Enthusiast, Children’s Book Writer on LinkedIn, adding:
“So proud of my dear friend, whose labor of love – her children’s book Dear Math, We’re Not Friends – is now available for pre-order!
With her deep background in STEM education and as a mom of two, Lina brings so much heart and insight to stories that inspire curiosity and help kids build a positive relationship with math. This message really resonates with me as a mom of three, in science, hopefully raising little STEM enthusiasts at home!”
Quoting Lina Chopra Haldar‘s post:
“I am thrilled to share the cover of my debut children’s book, DEAR MATH, WE’RE NOT FRIENDS, coming from Beaming Books on August 11, 2026!
This book is especially for anyone who gets that knot in their belly when it’s time to do math whether it’s homework, mental math, or dare I say it-time zone math. I hope it helps kids (and grown-ups!) find joy in math and feel like capable, confident mathematical thinkers.
Hope you pre-order now for all the kids in your life.”
