Jack Jones is an exceptionally intelligent fourteen year old who suffers from boredom and isolation at his public school. After a letter of acceptance comes from the prestigious Highborn Academy, Jack encounters a new world where he develops his talents for both academics and comedy, while growing emotionally through facing the challenges that naturally accompany friendship, love, family, and being part of a community. Suddenly, Jack is amongst his intellectual equals, studying subjects that interest him. He's got a roommate who wants to befriend him, a scholastic competition to study for, and even a girl he can't stop thinking about-but he's convinced that none of them will like him for himself. Jack changes his entire life and personality around in an effort to make himself more likable and "cool." Jack's social life gradually takes a turn for the better, but he's about to learn that if he can't accept himself for who he is, neither will anyone else.
