So it seems only fitting that she leave her parents farm to attend a top-secret, maximum-security school for kids with exceptional abilities.<br />School 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.<br />Consequences too dire to talk about. Too crazy to consider. And too dangerous to ignore.<br />At turns exhilarating and terrifying, Victoria Foresters debut novel is an unforgettable story of defiance and courage about an irrepressible heroine who can, who will, who must . . . fly.<br />This title has Common Core connections.<br /><strong>A 2009 Bank StreetBest Childrens Book of the Year</strong><br /><strong>"In this terrific debut novel . . . the story soars, just like Piper, with enough loop-de-loops to keep kids uncertain about what will come next." <em>Booklist</em> (starred review)</strong><br /><strong>"This fantasy has an air of reality, maintained by the aw-shucks flavor of the dialogue and its determined, good-as-gold heroine . . .
