"Ungifted" by Gordon Korman follows the story of Donovan Curtis, a clever but mischievous middle school student who accidentally gets placed in a school for gifted children after a major prank goes wrong. Instead of being punished, he finds himself in the unique and competitive environment of Académie Nuform, where he is surrounded by exceptionally talented classmates. As Donovan navigates the challenges of fitting in and discovering his own strengths, he also learns valuable lessons about friendship, self-worth, and the importance of being true to oneself. Through humor and heart, the story explores the idea that gifts come in many different forms. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
