To cheat or not to cheat? That is the question outsider Jenna Lee must answer when the fourth grade's most popular girl tosses her a plea for help during a math assessment exam. Combining straightforward narrative with easy-to-follow graphic novel panels, the book insightfully incorporates multiple points of view: parents, teachers, students, and administrators.
