One Sixth Genie

One-Sixth Genie Publisher's Summary

Ten-year-old Ava hates weirdness! Unfortunately, she is currently trapped inside a speeding polka-dotted minivan with a talking cat in a bowler hat, a pajama-wearing bear, an Egyptian mummy, and a knife-wielding killer doll. The police are chasing them. The cat is driving. And directly ahead is a thousand-foot cliff.

How did an ordinary girl from Stratham, New Hampshire, end up here?

To explain that, Ava must take you back to the beginning... to the moment a strange cat appeared in her backyard and revealed that she might not be quite as ordinary as she thought. With her eleventh birthday approaching and some very unpredictable powers beginning to emerge, one careless wish leads to another until Ava’s perfectly normal life becomes anything but. Wild, funny, and wonderfully weird, One-Sixth Genie: I Wish This Weren’t So Weird is the first adventure in a magical new series about growing up, making mistakes, and learning to be careful what you wish for.
