Bookroo's summary
Katie Welker, a solitary girl with silver eyes, can make things happen with her mind. Her unusual powers isolate her, leaving her friendless and feared. As she grapples with her identity, Katie wonders if there are others like her. Could they be allies in a world that misunderstands them? Join Katie on her quest to find those who share her extraordinary talents and uncover the truth behind their abilities. Will she find acceptance, or will her powers lead to unforeseen consequences?
From the publisher
“There’s something strange about that kid.” At least that’s what everyone says, but they don’t know the truth. Perfect for fans of Stranger Things, this classic novel continues to enthrall. Katie Welker is used to being alone. She would rather read a book than deal with other people. Other people don’t have silver eyes. Other people can’t make things happen just by thinking about them! But these special powers make Katie unusual, and it’s hard to make friends when you’re unusual. Katie knows that she’s different but she’s never done anything to hurt anyone so why is everyone afraid of her? Maybe there are other kids out there who have the same silver eyes…and the same talents…and maybe they’ll be willing to help her.
