Publisher's summary

A Newbery Honor recipient

Thirteen is when a Beaumont’s savvy hits - and with one brother who causes hurricanes and another who creates electricity, Mibs Beaumont is eager to see what she gets. But just before the big day, Poppa is in a terrible accident. And now, all Mibs wants is a savvy that will save him. In fact, Mibs is so sure she’ll get a powerful savvy that she sneaks a ride to the hospital on a rickety bus with her sibling and the preacher’s kids in tow. After this extraordinary adventure - full of talking tattoos and a kidnapping - not a soul on board will ever be the same.

Critic reviews

"A quirky feel-good narrative with a homespun warmth." (Sunday Times)

"The countrified fantasy elements are great fun, and Mibs' tenderness towards her father and other storm-tossed characters is touchingly real." (Seattle Post-Intelligencer)

Great story

I loved this story. It was sweet and engaging and creative. But the narrator’s voice was hard to listen to at times When she tried to change her voice to sound like other characters it got gravely and scratchy and, frankly, sounded really unhealthy. I preferred reading it so I got the whispersync version so I could go back and forth when I needed a break.

What savvy would you like?

A very fun story about a family that each has their own savvy. Mibs, the main character, is a delight to follow in her adventures throughout the book. Listen and enjoy!
