"Rushmore" by Lynn Curlee is a story that follows the journey of young Max Fisher, a precocious student at Rushmore Academy, who is determined to win the heart of a first-grade teacher. He balances his passion for extracurricular activities with thwarting rivals and navigating the complexities of friendship and romance. As he engages in ambitious projects and quirky schemes, Max learns important life lessons about love, loyalty, and the consequences of his choices. Juxtaposed with the backdrop of a prestigious academy, the narrative captures the trials and tribulations of adolescence with humor and insight.
