The Millicent Quibb School of Etiquette for Young Ladies of Mad Science

De: Kate McKinnon

Narrado por: Kate McKinnon, Emily Lynne

From beloved Saturday Night Live alum Kate McKinnon comes a madcap new adventure about three sisters, a ravenous worm, and a mysterious mad scientist.

So, you want to be a young mad scientist. Congratulations! Admitting it is the first step. The second step is reading the (definitely true) tale of the Porch sisters…

Gertrude, Eugenia, and Dee-Dee Porch do not belong. They don’t belong in the snooty town of Antiquarium, where all girls have to go to etiquette school and the only dog allowed is the bichon frise. They don’t belong with their adoptive family, where all their cousins are named Lavinia and their Aunt has more brooches than books. And they certainly don’t belong at Mrs. Wintermacher’s etiquette school—they’re far more interested in science. After getting kicked out of the last etiquette school that would take them, the girls expect to be sent away for good... until they receive a mysterious invitation to new school.

Suddenly the girls are under the tutelage of the infamous Millicent Quibb—a mad scientist with worms in her hair and oysters in her bathtub. At 231 Mysterium Way, the pizza is fatal, the bus is powered by Gerbils, and the Dean of Students is a hermit crab. Dangerous? Yes! More fun than they’ve ever had? Absolutely! But when the sisters are asked to save their town from an evil cabal of nefarious mad scientists, they must learn to embrace what has always made them stand out, and determine what side they’re on—before it’s too late!

So much heart and uniqueness

I loved this audiobook! I read the text along with listening to the audiobook. It was so entertaining! I can’t wait for the next book!

Silly and Engaging

I’m an adult 35 year old who listened to this audio book with my 9 year old kiddo. We both loved it! The characters are well written and very unique. The story line can get a bit wacky, but I think that’s part of the appeal. The reading performance was top notch. We hope there is a second book.

The acting was hilarious, Kate McKinnon is amazing!

I liked everything about the story, but that they left you on a clip hanger.

Fun and magical

I’ve been looking for a book like this. The plot is unexpected and fun and it has a magical switch to it all.

Kate McKinnon is THE BEST!

The story is spectacular, the voice are AWESOME,I laughed aloud many times.

A great escape from the chaos that is the world these days.
