The Report Card by Andrew Clements

Nora is a fifth-grade genius who plays the role of an average student. In her struggle not to be too different from everyone else, she gives herself bad grades to show that high test scores and grades don't equal intelligence. Even a nerd like me understands Nora's point in this story. The story is told in kid language and is fun for kid slackers to a thinking topic for adult philosophers.

All ages 7 and up can read The Report Card on their own.
