Sometimes, Birdy watches her father row people across the dangerous sea, but when the wrinkled old woman asks to be ferried across, Birdy jumps in too.

The woman tells Birdy that she has second sight, but Birdy isn't sure she wants this special gift.

However, soon she finds that looking twice at things can bring the most unexpected results...With an engaging story told in short chapters, and illustrations in black and white and colour on every double-page spread, this short novel is ideal for newly confident readers.
