But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its life believing it is stupid.\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAlly has been smart enough to fool a lot of smart people. Every time she lands in a new school, she is able to hide her inability to read by creating clever yet disruptive distractions. She is afraid to ask for help; after all, how can you cure dumb? However, her newest teacher Mr. Daniels sees the bright, creative kid underneath the trouble maker. With his help, Ally learns not to be so hard on herself and that dyslexia is nothing to be ashamed of. As her confidence grows, Ally feels free to be herself and the world starts opening up with possibilities. She discovers that there's a lot more to her--and to everyone--than a label, and that great minds don't always think alike.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLynda Mullaly Hunt\u003c\/b\u003e (www.lyndamullalyhunt.com) has received many honors for her debut novel, \u003ci\u003eOne for the Murphys\u003c\/i\u003e, which is on over twenty state award lists, including Bank Street's 2013 Best Books of the Year.
