The Girl Who Could Fly by Victoria Forester: Child Fiction

There are two words to describe The Girl Who Could Fly by Victoria Forester: Bizarre and incomplete.  It has many useful ideas and morals, but the story itself is like an unfinished piece of marble; it could have been beautiful, but isn’t.  Rather sad, really.
Nutshell: From an early age, Piper has been able to fly.  Unfortunately, she is in a small rural town where individuality is unacceptable.  A government agency takes her to an underground facility, but the help they offer isn’t what it appears.  Piper struggles to be herself and help those around her as well.
