Told from multiple perspectives this book chronicles the year of several middle school children as they prepare for statewide testing and how they decide to take matters into their own hands in order to "ace the test".
I do think the test prep by the school was very extreme but in many students' minds that is probably how it feels and they won't mind. But there is more to the story than that - friendship, bullies, forgiveness, expectations, and a lot of heart. I could see a lot of good discussions around this book.
