To prove this, however, Nora sets a not-so-smart plan into action: She decides to flunk fifth grade. It is this reason that leads Nora to draw a very smart conclusion: that tests and grades should not be the only way students are judged. Most of all, she does not want her best friend Stephen to feel less good about himself because she is so much smarter. She does not want to leave her regular fifth-grade class to attend the Gifted Program. She does not want her family, friends, or teachers to know that she is highly intelligent because she does not want to be singled out as different.
The secret is that she is very, very smart. Fifth-grader Nora Rose Rowley has been keeping an unusual secret for most of her life.
