What happens when Claire's secret starts unraveling?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Claire is by far the best gymnast on her team, and she's well on her way to qualifying for the state championships. The gym is where Claire shines. But at school, she's known as a troublemaker. She seems to spend more time in the office than in class--which is fine with her since it enables her to hide the fact that she can't read. She has never been able to make sense of the wobbling jumble of letters on a page. No one except her BFF knows. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e But when a sympathetic principal wonders if Claire is acting out because she's dyslexic, her mother balks. She's afraid Claire will be labeled \"stupid\" and refuses testing. Claire has always assumed she's dumb; she never imagined her reading problem could have a solution. Is she strong enough to take on both her reading challenges and her mother's denial? Is it worth jeopardizing her spot in qualifiers? \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Told in clear and poignant verse and featuring black and white illustrations, Claire's struggle with something that seems to come easily to everyone else will resonate with readers and have them cheering her on.","brand":"World of Books ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54421394555153,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781682635605.jpg?v=1787584830","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/products\/books-flipping-forward-twisting-backward-by-alma-fullerton","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
