The Complicated Life of a Dance Sister

My Twelve Inch Mom

De: Karen Stegman-Bourgeois

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

Being twelve is tough—especially when you’re balancing dance, friendships, a know-it-all bully, and the confusing world of crushes. But Quinn’s life takes an even wilder turn when her scientist mom, in an attempt to shrink her fat cells, accidentally shrinks every cell in her body instead. Now, Quinn has to navigate her suddenly pint-sized mom’s existence with a dance competition looming.

On top of that, her neighbor has a pet that won’t eat, her aunt is making healthy snacks for a cookbook (that contain questionable ingredients), and her triplet cousins want her to play - house, school, hide and seek – but Quinn has enough already to keep her busy.

Hilarity unfolds as Quinn keeps trying to find the silver lining in all of this. After all, there has to be one, right?

My kids liked it (Ages 14, 9)

It seemed like light-hearted Honey-I-Shrunk the Kids fun. I didn't hear all of it myself, but my kids said it was great. They liked this author's other YA school adventure story, so we gave it a go. The AI narrator was decent, but certain inflection points were lost on it.
