Who among us do not remember the show, The Wonder Years, which was mostly about the travails of Kevin Arnold and Winnie Cooper; the former brilliantly played by Fred Savage and the latter by Danica McKellar.

We watched Kevin's struggles, which ran the gamut from sibling rivalry and to his love for Winnie Cooper. The show - The Wonder Years - ended in the early nineties and Fred Savage went on to direct and play memorable roles in the Austin Powers movies. But what of Winnie Cooper, the role made famous by Danica McKellar? Danica has been busy and no one can accuse her of just being a pretty face: Danica is a UCLA grad who graduated with honors with a degree in Math; she is also married to Mike Verta and the couple is expecting a baby.

Danica hasn’t done much acting since her Wonder Years stint, but has authored two Math books (all New York Times best sellers), which focused on young ladies.

Danica believed that young ladies have a built in misguided mentality that only young men could master Math – so, as a consequence, Danica seized the opportunity and wrote her two Math best sellers as an example of a young lady who enjoys Math. Danica hopes to inspire and motivate other young ladies that they too can enjoy and have the mental faculties to master Math like their male counterparts.

The boys, who are now men, who watched The Wonder Years, may not be interested in Danica’s best selling Math books – but I am certain that they will be interested in feasting their eyes on the spread that Danica has done for Maxim magazine. The tastefully done shots of Danica underscore that Winnie Cooper is all grown up; to be exact, she is thirty five years old. I wonder how Kevin Arnold would have reacted in seeing the grown up Winnie Cooper posing in tasteful lingerie in Maxim magazine? In addition, to Danica’s pictures in Maxim, she wanted the public to know that she was about to publish her third book on Math.
