The Different Kid on the Block of History
Aristotle was a different kid. He grew up knowing he was different from all the others. When he went to school none of the kids wanted to eat their PBJ sandwiches in the presence of his company because they knew he would say something intellectual, and they wouldn't understand it.

That is why I only gave you a yellow smiliey. It would be hard to compare Aristotle to a modern day person and modern situations. You did a good job. A younger audience would enjoy your story.
