About the book
Laura comes from a talented family: her mother's a famous writer, her father a brilliant scientist, her older sister is an actress, and her big brother a musician. In fact, the only person in Laura's family who isn't special is Laura. But when Laura starts junior high, she learns that she has a gift for seeing into the future. Is her talent real? What will she do with it? And would people still like her even if she was ordinary?
