Review

"In this terrific debut novel, readers meet Piper McCloud, the late-in-life daughter of farmers...The story soars, just like Piper, with enough loop-de-loops to keep kids uncertain about what will come next....Best of all are the book's strong, lightly wrapped messages about friendship and authenticity and the difference between doing well and doing good." --Booklist

"Forester's disparate settings (down-home farm and futuristic ice-bunker institute) are unified by the rock-solid point of view and unpretentious diction... any child who has felt different will take strength from Piper's fight to be herself against the tide of family, church, and society." --The Horn Book 

Piper Mc Cloud会飞，当然，她还没有掌握反向推进，她的转身有点马虎，但她真的很擅长飞。没有人可以压制着她，除非用对正确的方法。Piper McCloud的父母将她送去一个隐秘的学校，这让镇里的人们都比较放心。学校一开始很棒，有一群新朋友，大家都很厉害，Piper McCloud能适应这里吗？

You just can't keep a good girl down...unless you use the proper methods. Piper McCloud can fly. Just like that. Easy as pie. Sure, she hasn't mastered reverse propulsion and her turns are kind of sloppy, but she's real good at loop-the-loops. Problem is, the good folk of Lowland County are afraid of Piper. And her ma's at her wit's 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. 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. Consequences too dire to talk about. Too crazy to consider. And too dangerous to ignore.
Victoria Forester is the author of The Girl Who Could Fly, which was praised as "the oddest/sweetest mix of Little House on the Prairie and X-Men" by Stephenie Meyer.
