What is this?

Teen Scene

JANUARY 31, 2009
Impossible Things by Robin Stevenson

Cassidy Silver wants a friend but is a social outcast in her seventh grade class because of the taunting of a group of popular girls. When Victoria moves to Cassidy’s school, Cassidy finds a friend who seems to have magical powers; Victoria claims to be telekinetic. Cassidy wants to believe but finds she doubts Victoria’s claims. The setting for the book is Canada, and while slight international differences in school are evident, the frustrations felt by Cassidy are universal. The theme was reminiscent of Roald Dahl’s novel, Matilda, in a shorter story for young teens and with a less complex plot.  This is a good quick read for young teens and tweens.
