Summary

UNGIFTED is a book written by Gordon Korman. This book is about a middle school kid named Donovan who was accidentally sent to the Academy for gifted kids. At his first school he made the earth on the Atlas statue break and roll down and hit the gym. There was a mix-up and Donovan went to the Academy. Here he joined the robotics class which was his home room and where he met his new friend. He nicknamed the robot Tin-Man which was stunning to the gifted kids who never thought to name the robot.
Next, Donavon uses his sister so the other kids could get a good grade in the human reproduction subject because she was pregnant. Because of the globe ruining the old school's gym, the UNGIFTED and GIFTED had to share the Valentine dance. At the dance the Donovan's old friends, the Daniels had seen the robot and put it on the dance floor. In the process, the robot gets damaged.
Before the big robotics competition, Donovan has to take a retest for the Academy. If you want to see what happens with the retest, go get the book in book stores now!
