Story
The Getting of Wisdom, a wicked and satirical novel on the pain and confusion of growing up, first appeared in 1910. A century later, it has lost none of its bite. One of the most memorable characters in Australian fiction, Laura Rambotham, aged 12, enters the portals of an exclusive girls' school eager to be accepted. But this precocious country girl is snubbed and ridiculed by her fellow students, who are richer, more attractive, and more adept at dealing with life's hypocrisies.

Story
Laura Tweedle Rambotham tiene doce años y es de una familia venida a menos. Su madre se gana la vida como costurera, pero está decidida a que tenga una buena educación, lo que para ella se resume en el siguiente lema: «Prefiero que seas buena y útil antes que inteligente». La envía a un prestigioso internado de Melbourne, donde lo primero que aprende la chica es que debe ocultar su origen y el modesto oficio de su madre. La escritora de esta novela se basó en su propia experiencia en el Presbyterian Ladies College de Melbourne para escribir esta novela.
