It's the start of fifth grade for seven kids at Snow Hill School. There's JESSICA, the new girl, smart and Verceptive, who's having a hard time fitting in; ALEXIA, a bully, your friend one second, your enemy the next; PETER, class prankster and troublemaker; LUKE, the brain; DANIELLE, who never stands up for herself; shy ANNA, whose home situation makes her an outcast; and JEFFREY, who hates school.

Only MR. TERUPT, their new teacher, seems to know how to deal with them all. He makes the classroom a fun place, even if he doesn't let them get away with much ... until the snowy winter day when an accident changes everything—and everyone.
