Story
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.

Publisher's Summary
"It's the oddest/sweetest mix of Little House on the Prairie and X-Men. I was smiling the whole time (except for the part where I cried). I gave it to my mom, and I'm reading it to my kids - it's absolutely multigenerational. Prepare to have your heart warmed." (Stephenie Meyer, author of the 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, The Girl Who Could Fly 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.
Critic Reviews
“It's the oddest/sweetest mix of Little House on the Prairie and X-Men. I was smiling the whole time (except for the part where I cried). I gave it to my mom, and I'm reading it to my kids - it's absolutely multigenerational. Prepare to have your heart warmed.” (Stephenie Meyer, The Twilight Saga)
“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, starred review)
“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 Review)

BEST BOOK EVER
THE BEST BOOK EVER. So exiting, so many plot twists! I suggest listening to The Girl Who Could Fly if you like a scrumptious adventure with some conflict and suspense sprinkled in the mix.
The book is expertly seasoned with exiting characters, each with their own personalities. The novel is all about the struggles of being different and finding your people.

Classic tale of an altruistic heroine who overcomes adversity.
I love this book! I originally read it to my kids, and I couldn’t put it down. Then we listened to the audible book recently on a road trip, and the entire car was spellbound with the twists and turns of the plot along with the truly heroic decisions of the main character. This book is a treasure!
