Back Cover:

Gertrude Hollings lived only a bus ride away from school, a place where she was "dumb," as some of her classmates would point out, or "unmotivated," as some of her teachers might say.

Her cousin Albert lived only seven blocks away, but it might as well have been another planet. In fact, most of the time Gertrude wished Albert was on Mars.

Gertrude Hollings and Albert Nugent. Learning Disabled and Superachiever.

Her mother had said that staying with the Nugents would be preparation. If three weeks with Albert was preparation, Gertrude didn't have the courage to ask what it was preparation for.
