  Max Leonard, convinced he is horrible at math because he experiences test anxiety every time the teacher starts the timer, amazes everyone by his ability to complete algebra problem sets. Max's hopes of becoming an engineer seem unattainable as Max's brain freezes every time he takes a timed math fact test and is teased by the other children. That is until it's discovered that Max understands how math works but just has trouble with memorization. From the series The Adventures of Everyday Geniuses. IL 2-4.
