Sounds like an interesting children’s book. I found a series a few years ago that was meant for adolescents but I really enjoyed it as an adult! It had some nice fantasy aspect to it and I devoured 4 or 5 of the books I think lol.

If I was in a situation where I just stopped something with my mind, I would probably run away from the person looking for me. My mind goes to things like the movie Terminator where things get sent to kill important people like that lol
