Read the New York Times bestseller and companion to Newbery Honor
winner Savvy!
It's nine years after Savvy, and Mibs' cousin Ledge is on the verge of
turning thirteen. More than anything, he wants the power to run like the
wind. But when his birthday comes, he discovers that his savvy is
actually making things fall apart. It starts out with small things, but
then it gets worse. To top it all off, someone outside the family has
witnessed his destruction. Now, in addition to trying to figure out how
to control - or scumble - his savvy, he's got to worry about how to
protect the family secrets. Over the course of one amazing summer, Ledge
learns a lot about himself and his family, makes a new - and very
unlikely - friend, and learns to appreciate his newfound skills.
Readers will delight in the tall-tale tropes and Ledge's authentic
physical, emotional, and artistic challenges. - Booklist, starred
review
The title stands alone in its fast-paced plot with twists and turns
galore, and readers familiar with Savvy will eat it up and wish for
more. - School Library Journal
