Book ID/图书代码： 04003014B67007
English Summary/英文概要： This morning, I woke up on the ceiling ... So begins the strange story of Gwendolyn Golden. One perfectly ordinary day for no apparent reason, she wakes up floating around her room like one of her little brother’s Batman balloons.
Puberty is weird enough. Everyone already thinks she’s an oddball with anger issues because her father vanished in a mysterious storm one night when she was six. Then there are the mean, false rumours people are spreading about her at school. On top of all that, now she’s a flying freak.
How can she tell her best friend or her mother? How can she live her life? After Gwendolyn almost meets disaster flying too high and too fast one night, help arrives from the most unexpected place. And stranger still? She’s not alone.

青春期真的是无比奇怪和诡异的。所有的人都认为她是个怪胎，正因为她的爸爸在她六岁那年在一个神秘的暴风雨之夜后离奇的消失，所以她是不详的象征。从那以后学校里便流传着关于她的各种刻薄和虚假流言。如今她就要更加出名了，因为她变成了一个会飞的怪物。
她该如何告诉自己最好的朋友和妈妈呢？她将如何继续自己的生活？一日夜里，当格温德林悲剧性的越飞越高且越飞越快时，从最令人意向不到的地方伸出了援助之手。还会觉得奇怪吗？或许她将不再孤单。（DC）
