Find out what happens when Cassia tries to figure everything out and how that affects her life and family.

This was an excellent read, it reminds me of The Giver, with a twist.  This is the first book in the series.

Book Review

Girls Think of Everything: Stories of Ingenious Inventions by Women written by Catherine Thimmesh Who was the first person to make chocolate chip cookies? Who invented windshield wipers? What about "white-out"? Read this book to find out who, when, where and why these things were invented! It is a quick read, giving the background information about the person and details of the event that led to the invention. The illustrations are amazing.
