Valerie Barnes is your typical 13 year old. Except for one thing. She's in the 4th grade. Her totally oblivious mom can't see her side of the story, and she's fed up. Finally after a whole lot of acting skills, she convinced her mom to move, so she can start on a fresh plate, and perhaps start the 8th grade, the grade she's supposed to be in. But over the summer, her mom decideds to enroll her in a summer school. And she can't go to 8th grade, unless she learns all 5th grade, 6th grade, and 7th grade concepts. Now how is she supposed to do that in one summer?!
