Mom can control minds; Grandpa twists time; Molly's twin sister Penelope has an all-too-real imagination; and Finn is the pesky kid brother--who happens to be invisible. Then there's Molly, the most unusual Quirk of all. Molly is completely, utterly normal. Molly's greatest desire is to fit in, and she's found the perfect spot: Normal, Michigan.

Clean, hilarious story which is fun to read allowed!
The Quirk family- mom, grandpa, grandma, twin girls and little brother have a character for everyone. They talk about their magic 'quirk' and how they are adjusting in thier new town of Normal. I enjoyed our son's giggles as he reads this book and we also enjoyed reading this allowed with little brother. There are no mentions of witches or ghosts in this book (that i remember) and i appreciate that. Thanks for such a comical story about a family of misfits.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
