But along the way the girls discover a feral child, learn that they have magical abilities, and that they are from another planet. Will the girls find their way home? This book is for grades 6-9 because of violence and strong language. This is a powerful novel that combines sci-fi, real life events, scientific theories, friendship, disabilities, romance, magic, and family all into one. It also shows the power of the mind to manifest anything. It is about perseverance endurance kindness and finding yourself. It shows that through the darkest time as long as you keep hope you can accomplish your dreams. It also uses a metaphors to represent the injustice in the world and that we have to fight to abolish to be treated fairly. This is a heart wrenching novel filled with pain and sadness but at its heart this book is about the magic that lives inside everyone. I also wrote this book to make people more aware of the disorders and disabilities that a lot of people face. The disorders and disabilities that the girls in this book have I also suffer from myself and I feel that the public should be more aware of these conditions.Complete
