Mia Winchell appears to be a typical kid, but she's keeping a big secret--sounds, numbers, and words have color for her. No one knows, and Mia wants to keep it that way. But when trouble at school finally forced Mia to reveal her secret, she must learn to accept herself and embrace her ability, called synesthesia, the mingling of perceptions whereby a person can see sounds, smell colors, or taste shapes.
