2"Nia and the Numbers Game is an entertaining, sensitive and factual guide for teen girls who are facing decisions about education and sex." - Haywood Smith, New York Times and USA Today Best-Selling Author. Teenager Nia Ferguson is undergoing such rites of passage as her first crush, her first date, and her first love. She is an everyday girl facing the challenges of today with ambition and pride. In this novel geared toward adolescent girls and their families, Dr. Kela Henry offers positive inspiration as she guides girls, especially those from lower-economic families, through the often-daunting processes of maintaining self-esteem, navigating romantic relationships, and applying for college. Nia & the Numbers Game, A Teenager's Guide to Education, Relationships & Sex is a unique combination of fact and fiction. Written with the rich detail of a novel, the story follows Nia's progress from a girl in middle school to a young doctor and then a mother who is married with a baby of her own.
