About This Item

New York: Simon & Schuster, 2004. First Edition. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. Presentation copy, inscribed by Andrew Clements to Charlotte Huck on the title page. Huck (1922-2005) was an internationally renowned children's literature expert whose classic textbook, Children's Literature in the Elementary School, is now in its tenth edition.

"Fifth grader Nora Rowley has always hidden the fact that she is a genius from everyone because all she wants is to be normal, but when she comes up with a plan to prove that grades are not important, things begin to get out of control."

Octavo. Original blue paper-covered boards over an orange cloth spine, with silver titles. A fine copy in a fine dust jacket.

Synopsis

True or False? Fifth grader Nora Rose Rowley is really a genius. True. But don't tell anyone. Nora always gets average grades so she can forgo the pressure-cooker gifted program or Brainiac Academy. But when Nora gets one hundred percent fed up over testing and the fuss everyone makes about grades, she brings home a terrible report card just to prove a point. Pretty soon her teachers, parents, and the principal are launching a massive effort to find out what's wrong. But can Nora convince them that tests alone are a stupid way to measure intelligence?
