Gifted 1

Twelve-year-old Carina always thought she was normal—until the day plants began obeying her. After a strange incident at school reveals her hidden abilities, Carina learns the truth: she is one of the Gifted, descendants of ancient protectors who wield the powers of the elements. Along with her younger brother David, she begins secret training to control powers that could change her life forever. But the world of the Gifted is far bigger—and more dangerous—than she ever imagined. As Carina meets other young Gifted and discovers the mysteries surrounding their powers, a shadow begins to rise. Someone is searching for ancient elemental gems—artifacts powerful enough to disturb the balance of the world. And if they fall into the wrong hands, the consequences could be devastating. Carina and her friends may be the only ones who can stop it… if they are ready.
