Noah is eleven, and the letters still don't hold still. He worked out at nine that there are two jobs for a boy who can't read at the speed everyone else reads: the one who can't do it, or the one who doesn't care. He picked the second. Then they put him in Set 3 for science — a subject he is properly good at — because the test was four pages of reading. Same test, read out loud: 88%. On paper: 31%. Same brain. Same kidney.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is book 4 of six. The 5B Books pick up the six children from the 2B picture books three years on — same class, same six, eleven now.
