                        The author's message is that people should not be judged by how smart they are because everyone is smart in different ways. If you force a person to believe that they are not smart they will never succeed, Einstein was dumb when he was a child but no one pushed him down and now is considered one of the smartest person in the world. Ally is a great child with a great mind, except she has been pushed down so much that she now  believes it and she puts her expectations very low. One quote that proves this "Everybody is smart in different ways. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree it will live its life believing it is stupid." This quote is significant because this shows how Ally believed that she was stupid and the Author's message is you shouldn't be judged by your smartness because it can cause long term affects, because people are unique smart in different ways.
