Bloomability is a children's book by Sharon Creech, first published in 1998; the main character is Dinnie Doone, a young girl who at the start of the novel lives with her semi-nomadic family in the modern-day United States of America.
She is given the opportunity to attend a boarding school in Lugano, Switzerland, where the majority of the storyline takes place.
Keisuke is a Japanese student at the school who is just learning English, so "bloomability" emerged as his linguistic concept of the word "possibility" Domenica Santolina Doone, known as Dinnie, has spent most of her life traveling around the United States because her father is transiently employed.
She befriends a girl named Lila, who at first seems nice but then starts complaining a lot, but Dinnie still really likes her.
During a Ski trip with the boarding school, Lila and Guthrie get trapped in an avalanche and are saved because Dinnie watched where they fell and was thus able to locate them.
