Onyeka has a lot of hair - the kind that makes strangers stop in the street. She's always felt insecure about her vibrant curls,until she makes an important discovery: she can control her hair with her mind!
Her mother quickly whisks her off to the Academy of the Sun,a school in Nigeria where Solari - children with superpowers - are trained. But Onyeka and her new friends at the Academy soon have to put their powers to the test as they find themselves embroiled in a momentous battle between truth and lies...
