"Everyone has varying degrees of intelligence. A fish, meanwhile, will spend its whole existence feeling it is foolish if you assess it by its ability to scale a tree.
Ally has the intelligence to con a great deal of intelligent individuals. She manages to disguise her incapacity to read every time she transfers schools by coming up with ingenious but distracting activities.Since it's impossible to cure stupid, she is hesitant to seek for assistance. But Mr. Daniels, her new instructor, recognizes the intelligent, imaginative child hiding behind the troublemaker. With his support, Ally learns that she shouldn't be so harsh on herself and that having dyslexia is not a reason for shame. Ally feels more comfortable being herself as her confidence rises, and opportunities begin to present themselves. She learns that everyone is much more than a label and that brilliant brains aren't necessarily identical in their thinking.
