The word gifted has never been applied to a kid like Donovan Curtis, more like 'Don't Try This At Home.' When he pulls a major prank at his middle school, he's worried about the consequences, so when he accidentally finds himself accepted into the Academy of Scholastic Distinction, he can't think of a better place to hide out, but how long can he hide that he isn't very good at math, science, or almost anything . . . ?
A comical and engaging story from the master of middle-grade and YA humour Gordon Korman, Ungifted is a funny exploration of the special (and often surprising) talents that make each of us gifted in our own way.
