i think it is one of the best books i have ever read!
the role models are very good and the story line is nice.
if you are into magic then this is for you!
i just think the messages are'nt the best. but other than that its a great book!
It was a well put together book. It was thought-provoking and I even recommended it to my siblings at home! I think all kids should get this book. However, you probably would have to bring a dictionary around when you read this book because they use some funny slang of some sort that might be confusing for some.
This is a great "coming of age" book. It would make an excellent read aloud for families or classes of kids gr. 4 and higher. There would be many excellent discussion points. It is lots of fun, but with a good message, too. This is the author's debut novel, she has excellent writing style; I hope to read more from her!
What IS Mibs savvy (what this special family calls their "magical power")? If you read this book that is probably a question you will be asking yourself. I really liked this book. I think this is a good book for seven and up (strong readers). If you don't like magic this is not a good book for you, as it is about a family with magical powers. Otherwise it is a great book for every one!
I loved this book! Its good to read before bed beacuse all my other books are about murder and stuff like that. So, this book was good to read before I went to bed!I love how the book has suspense and is very interestng!
I loved the book. One of the best I've ever read but there is a
character that is rude and mean to others. She never swears or uses any violence, but is a bully. The story is a wonderful tale of a girl coming of age and all the questions and experiences that come with it.
I loved this book because it created a world for your imagination. It left you wondering what the end of the book would bring. I imagined what savvy I would have, and how I would use it.
A fun and easy to read book about a family with odd super powers. In this book a group of children end up in an adventure when they try to go to the hospital to help a dying father. There is particular group of Christians that some will find objectionable (fussy, interfering and self-righteous).

We love this book!
We loved this book! I bought a hardcover when it came out, and it was completely worn out and ragged, it was read so many times.
The characters are mostly tweens, and are discovering themselves, and who they are. The story is delightful, and the lessons the kids learn about themselves are great to relate to.
