The human eye is only capable of detecting a miniscule percentage of the electromagnetic spectrum; we call this visible light. It is this limited perception that has defined our very reality as a species. Second Sight is the story of a brilliant young scientist who develops the nano-technology to cure blindness. He could never have prepared for the betrayal and intrigue that befell him, nor could he have foreseen the hidden agendas that lay waiting in the shadows. Michael Rose's synchronistic journey into the realms of possibility would not only leave him questioning his own sanity, but the very nature of existence itself. Neither he nor his nefarious benefactors stopped to ask: if this nano-technology could enhance the function of the human eye, what else would it see?

""The familiar actions and the turn-around format make this useful for pre-school storytime, and appealing to very young children."" (School Library Journal) ""With a corps of frisky, balletically capering porkers and a circular counting rhyme that can be started from either end of the book, Paparone and Roth take children cycling from mud puddle to bathtub and back."" (Booklist) ""The stories work well together, and you can expect to be asked to flip it over and over so listeners can pore over the details in the illustrations."" (The Horn Book Guide)
