The Report Card was another great listen by Andrew Clements. This time with a girl main character, Clements tells the story of Nora who is a bonafide genius. The only thing is, Nora doesn't want anyone to know she is a genius. She has worked very hard to get straight Ds on her report card (well she did mess up and get a C in vocab) but she secretly takes class online from MIT. She also wants to change the way people think about grades. What do they really prove? Do kids need to know what grades they make? That kind of thing. Great book!
