Hallie is a sweet and energetic fifteen-year-old. She has been legally blind since the day of her birth. She can see vague shapes with the help of her glasses, but does not see details. She likes to go to concerts with her best friends, and to read murder mysteries which are printed in Braille (a special script for blind people which they can read with their fingers). Most people do not know that Hallie is blind when they meet her. She has learned how to get around in her own special way.
