Ally kan ikke lide skolen. Når hun prøver at læse eller skrive, synes ordene bare at danse rundt, og hun kan bare ikke gøre det. Hendes lærer forstår hende ikke, og de onde piger gør grin med hende. Da hendes lærer går på barsel, ændrer Allys verden sig, og det er på grund af Mr. Daniels. Han er ikke som de andre. Faktisk er han ikke som nogen, Ally nogensinde har mødt.

Today we will be learning about influential people.
Ally acted out and constantly got into trouble until Mr. Daniels arrived and showed her that he cares and believes in her. She wanted to make him proud and truly respected him. Mr. Daniels saw Ally for who she was and gave her the confidence to succeed in life, and taught her that people learn in many different ways.
