Just like that. Easy as pie. n nSure, she hasnt mastered reverse propulsion and her turns are kind of sloppy, but shes real good at loop-the-loops. n nProblem is, the good folk of Lowland County are afraid of Piper. And her mas at her wits end. So it seems only fitting that she leave her parents farm to attend a top-secret, maximum-security school for kids with exceptional abilities. n nSchool is great at first with a bunch of new friends whose skills range from super-strength to super-genius. (Plus all the homemade apple pie she can eat!) But Piper is special, even among the special. And there are consequences. n nConsequences too dire to talk about. Too crazy to consider. And too dangerous to ignore. n nAt turns exhilarating and terrifying, Victoria Foresters debut novel has been praised by Stephenie Meyer, author of the Twilight saga, as the oddest/sweetest mix of Little House on the Prairie and X-Men...Prepare to have your heart warmed. The Girl Who Could Fly is an unforgettable story of defiance and courage about an irrepressible heroine who can, who will, who must . . . fly. n nThis title has Common Core connections.n
