Flipping forward twisting backward / Fullerton, Alma

"Fifth-grader Claire can do a perfect triple handspring. She can do a giant pirouette on the uneven bars. What she can't do is reading. With a lot of effort, she hides her secret until an alert vice principle suggests she get evaluated for a learning disability. Now Claire has to convince her mother--who's afraid her daughter will be labeled 'stupid'--to let her get tested. And that turns out to be even harder than reading"--Provided by publisher.

"A high-energy novel in verse starring a fifth-grader who is almost as devoted to competitive gymnastics as she is to hiding her poor reading skills. What happens when Claire's secret starts unraveling?"--Provided by the publisher.
