This
book is a fabulous book, about one girl’s determination to fit in. And
find the 3 other children with the same unique situation as she has. The
story is about a young girl with the strange ability of telekinesis, and
later discovers after her grandmother dies for a fall down the stairs that
there may be 3 more children like her. After her grandmother dies Katie
goes to move in with her mother and her boyfriend that always smells of
cigarettes and booze.
Later on in the story a man named Mr. C moves to the complex where her
and her mother lived. Looking at the strange man Katie wonders “is he a
cop” “dues he too believe that she killed her grandmother like all her
neighbors” “all because she has unusual eyes”.
So now Katie is attempting to prove her incense by finding the 3 other
children with her same unusual eyes. So now the question remains. Will
she find them? Will they be like her? Will they ever still be alive? And
the one thing Katie has loathed for all her like. Will they accept her?
