Against the Odds

(3) 4-6 Fans of the equally offbeat predecessor The Mighty Odds should be eager to learn the backstory of the main characters' strange superpowers, which involves an ill-intentioned lab testing a drug on rabbits--and on Amish teens during their Rumspringa. The often funny mission to rescue several people locked up by that lab is punctuated with drawings, news articles, and sometimes boorish middle-school dialogue.
