a Beaumont Family book
Gypsy Beaumont has always been a whirly-twirly free spirit, so as her thirteenth birthday approaches, she hopes to get a magical ability that will let her fly, or dance up to the stars. Instead, she wakes up on her birthday with blurry vision . . . and starts seeing flashes of the future and past. But that's nothing compared to what's about to happen, when her savvy--and those of her other family members--suddenly switch to something new and different!
