The scapegoat

by Betsy Haynes

Christie has never received a poor grade in her life--until she moves to London and winds up in Miss Finney's science class. Now Christie is getting Ds on her assignments and she can't figure out why. She decides the annual science competition is her only chance to prove herself to Miss Finney, but will her project be judged fairly as long as she's Miss Finney's scapegoat?
