Read by Adam McArthur.

"Caleb is shorter, frailer, and more protected than most twelve year olds. That's because he was born with cystic fibrosis, a disease that kills his lungs with mucus and shortens his lifespan. The rules and routines that manage his disorder control too much of Caleb, not that his prying mom or perfect older brother seem to care. Then Caleb meets Kit. Instantly, his world changes. Kit says they are destined to be friends; she read so on his palm. She calls birds down from the sky and turns every day into an adventure. Her magic is contagious, making Caleb question the rules and order in his life. But being Kit's friend means embracing deception and danger. Soon, Caleb will have to decide if his friendship with Kit is really what's best for him -- or her."--,Provided by publisher.
