The Dazzling Heights The Dazzling Heights by Katharine McGee is the second book in the trilogy series‚ The Thousandth Floor. I found this book was a very interesting read‚ because I could relate to what the characters were feeling and the situations they were in.

This book gives us an inside on how children think about meeting new people. I like the way it puts it in the concept on being afraid rather then not likeing the person.
