The Education of Bet

186 pp. | Houghton | July, 2010 | Trade ISBN 978-0-547-22308-7 $16.00
(4) YA In nineteenth-century England, Bet's decision to impersonate a boy and attend boarding school leads to an unexpected set of learning experiences, since bullying and sports have too prominent a place in the curriculum. Like the Shakespearean and Dickensian heroines she admires, however, Bet is graced not only with energy and wit, but a string of improbably fortunate plot-twists that enable her to triumph.
