Together with her best friend, Bradley, the winsome and overconfident Clara becomes convinced that her knack for making liquids spill, overhearing her parents' conversations, communicating with her pet chinchilla, and maybe even mind-controlling teachers could be used to put a stop to these injustices.

Told in Clara's clever, funny, and strikingly authentic voice, this novel kicks off a new series by inviting readers into this memorable character's inventive mind to share in her misadventures. Annotated with Clara's comic sketches, it's a fast-paced read with a spot-on perspective of life as a 10-year-old that kids will surely relate to.
