Product Description
Every year, high school students from Judson Christian School compete in the Superbrain Games (an educational trivia contest) against all the schools in their area. However, they haven't come close to beating the public schools since the 1960s when Maggie Thistle led her team to victory. Miss Thistle is now a teacher at Judson. She is up for retirement and would like nothing else than to win the championship one more time. Unfortunately, no students have even applied to play! As she struggles to round up a team (she succeeds and their personalities add a lot to the story) and train them to be winners, she's suddenly diagnosed with cancer and must decide which course to take. With a focus on Christ throughout, this is a very motivating and entertaining story. By Sharon Hambrick, 122 pgs, pb. ~Rachel
