When Mandy loses her eyesight, even the easy stuff takes work

How do you get along in a world you can't see?

Mandy survives the terrible accident that killed her mother, but she was left blind and alone. Now she lives with relatives she doesn't know, attends a new school, and tries to make friends--all the while struggling to function without sight.

Her unpredictable life takes its strangest turn when she realizes that thought she can't see, she hears more than other people do. But what Mandy hears through the dark window of her attic room isn't normal. In fact, what she hears--and seems to "see"--are things that happened years ago, before she was even born . . .

A sensitive and well-told story, inhabited by appealing and believable characters.
