A diagnosis of dyslexia could change everything for an aspiring fifth-grade gymnast struggling at school in this authentic, high-energy novel in verse. The print edition of this title is set in a font developed to be easy to read. The gym is where Claire shines and shes on her way to qualifying for the state championships. But at school, shes known as a troublemakerwhich is fine with her since it helps her hide her reading problem. Claire has never been able to make sense of the wobbling jumble of letters on a page. When a sympathetic principal wonders if shes acting out because she may have dyslexia, shes stunned. Claire has always assumed shes dumb, so shes eager to get evaluated. But her mother balks. Afraid Claire will be labeled stupid, she refuses testing. Can Claire take on both her reading challenges and her mothers denial? Is it worth jeopardizing her dream of the state championships? Told in clear and poignant verse and featuring black and white illustrations, Claires struggle with something that seems to come easily to everyone else will resonate with readers and have them cheering her on.
