Millicent Min, Girl Genius

描述

米莉森特・明這個夏天過得糟透了。高中同學個個都討厭她，只因為她的成績拉高了班級分數線；年紀相仿的十一歲同伴也排擠她，就怪她小小年紀便讀了高中。更糟的是，她的外婆瑪蒂即將搬走。
Millicent Min is having a bad summer. Her fellow high school students hate her for setting the curve. Her fellow eleven-year-olds hate her for going to high school. Her grandmother Maddie is moving away. And in an effort to give Millicent a more “normal” childhood, her mom has not only signed her up for volleyball, she’s also arranged for her to tutor Stanford Wong — jock, jerk, and poster boy for Chinese geekdom.

But when Millicent meets Emily, things start to look up. Emily doesn’t know Millicent’s IQ score. She actually thinks Millicent is cool. And if Millicent can hide her awards, ignore her grandmother’s advice, blackmail Stanford into silence, learn to serve a volleyball over the net, stop her parents from embarrassing her forever, and keep all her lies straight, she just might make her first friend.
