The Mighty Odds (The Odds Series #1) (Volume 1)

The Mighty Odds is first in a fun series about a diverse crew of middle school kids who develop very limited superhero powers after a strange accident and manage to become unlikely friends on the adventure of a lifetime. From the renowned author/illustrator of the Popularity Papers series, Amy Ignatow. What do you get when you mix a sci-fi nerd, a cartoonist, a social outcast, and the most popular girl in school with a mysterious bus crash? Some very specific—and mighty odd—superpowers. Martina can change her eye color; Nick can teleport four inches to the left; Farshad can develop super strength, but only in his thumbs; and Cookie can read minds, when those minds are thinking about directions. Starring a diverse group of kids, this series’ multiple narrators make for a quirky, contemporary read that tackles identity and stereotypes. Praised widely, Ignatow’s characters have been called “very real” by the New York Times and “completely convincing” by The New Yorker. “Ignatow turns on its head the classic middle school good kids-vs.-the populars/bullies trope . . . Hilarious and revealing, this series opener is a must-have.” —Kirkus Reviews The Odds series: The Mighty Odds (#1) Against the Odds (#2) Odds & Ends (#3)
