Learning curve

the long version

"Brilliant Yehudis Tannenbaum aces her courses and is the class genius, pestered for help before every test. But is her brain all that anyone can see in her - even her good friend, Tova? Tormented by the English teacher's spelling mistakes and her own inexplicable difficulty with geometry, Yehudis stumbles through her first year in high school in the attempt to just fit in. It doesn't help that her lack of theatrical talent for the school play lands her in the costume department, and incredibly ends up getting her suspended from school! Learning Curve is a novel of self-awareness and friendship that will entertain as it captivates all the way to its surprising conclusion"--back cover.
