Cora discovers a magical ring in the back of an old piano. This ring allows the thoughts of those around her to enter Cora's mind. However, a majority of these thoughts are melancholic, pessimistic, and bothersome. Cora begins to have a more negative outlook on her life and believes she is surrounded by bad luck. When her father gets a new job, she and her family move from their home in Minnesota to Texas, leaving the ring and piano behind. After Cora's family leaves, a high school acquaintance discovers the ring. Katie has the opposite experience with the ring and hears positive, affirming thoughts. The ring encourages Katie's upbeat personality. She wonders why and how this happens and believes she can use it to help someone. On a visit from Texas, Cora notices Katie wearing the ring. A unique friendship forms, and Katie is on a mission to help Cora understand that positive thinking is in her own control. The ring gives power to hear thoughts, but the girls realize that the real magic of positive thinking starts from within their own minds.
