  “The oddest/sweetest mix of Little House on the Prairie and X-Men. I was smiling the whole time . . . Prepare to have your heart warmed.” —Stephenie Meyer, author of the #1 bestselling Twilight saga 
   
  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. 
   
  At turns exhilarating and terrifying, Victoria Forester’s debut novel is an unforgettable story of defiance and courage about an irrepressible heroine who can, who will, who must . . . fly. 
   
  This title has Common Core connections. 
   
  A 2009 Bank Street—Best Children’s Book of the Year 
   
  ”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.” —Booklist (starred review) 
   
  ”This fantasy has an air of reality, maintained by the aw-shucks flavor of the dialogue and its determined, good-as-gold heroine . . . [an] X-Men-like superhero take on the world.” —Kirkus Reviews
