The Girl of Poldrevy Cove Mr Andrew P Smith

Publisher Marketing: Some things are better off staying secret... '.... Micayla, can you tell the other two that I don't want anyone else to know about my, um, other abilities? I have enough trouble with this physical stuff, without being a freak in other ways.' Carolyn sent telepathically, and lifted her stiff unresponsive left arm as best she could. She saw a slight nod from the other girl. 'No problems there - we're a family who knows all about secrets you'd rather others not know - and being different. Mind if I tell my cousins, later, though?' 'Least I can do for Lori, I think - sure.' 'Your brother, on the other hand... Can he swim?' 'Not a stroke.' She was amused at Micayla's grin - which was positively predatory! 'You know smiling to yourself in public like that will get you put away, right?!' 'Eh! I sometimes have fins and gills. Crazy is the least of my problems. ....' What happens when an extraordinary girl meets a girl that can do extraordinary things? Carolyn is a girl with great challenges, and extraordinary secrets. Micayla is a girl who IS an extraordinary secret--and her secret is her greatest challenge. Sometimes, two very different people can become the closest of friends. And sometimes, family is someone who is the same because they are different.
