Quick Assessment

Hazel Bloom, a third-grader, begins seeing visions of trouble that will happen within a day, but her new power often makes things messier instead of better. Expect silly school slapstick, like a cafeteria food fight, and a headstrong heroine who learns that seeing something is not the same as understanding it. Content is light and playful, with only brief mild tension around the visions and no serious danger.
