My teachers just let me read and ignore the class, but they made sure my Dad got my homework assignments. The rest of the room might be doing algebra or chemistry, but I was traveling through Africa or China a few hundred years ago. When I finished reading about the Mongols, I’d be marching with the Ninth Legion, heading north from Hadrian’s Wall. (Spoiler alert— the Ninth never came back.)
