The Quirks: Welcome to Normal

(4) 4-6 Illustrated by Kelly Light. Nine-year-old Molly's family is constantly relocating to escape the havoc caused by their magical powers. Settling in welcoming Normal, Michigan, Molly and her twin Penelope work hard to avoid catastrophe and relish the chance to develop friendships. The comical story is predictable, but readers will enjoy the magical mishaps and the family's quirky dynamics, both fully captured in Light's black-and-white illustrations.
