About this item
Meet the wonder-full Aleca Zamm, an ordinary ten-year-old with an extraordinary ability: she can stop time!Aleca Zamm has finally reached double digits and she still doesn't have a "thing" - a special talent or ability that will make her stand out. Her best friend, Maria, has a thing (swim team) ; her sister, Dylan, has a thing (singing) ; and even her former BFF Madison has a thing (soccer) . But Aleca? No. Thing. Until the day of her tenth birthday when Aleca discovers she can stop time just by saying her name. Suddenly, Aleca has a thing ... and life is about to get a lot more interesting! It turns out that being a Wonder (as her eccentric Aunt Zephyr, who is also a Wonder, calls it) comes with a few caveats, and that stopping time doesn't go undetected by other Wonders or those who may be searching for them.
