Straight-A student, Ziva Kritikos, loves to learn. She's always been curious about new things. So when she wishes on a star to know more, she's gifted the ability to eat words. More intrigued than horrified, Ziva eats to her heart's content at first.
With knowledge comes power, and this can't be more true for her. Every word she eats gives her everything she's ever wanted to learn and more. However, the consequences of such a power turn out to be much more than she bargains for.
