Savvy

by Ingrid Law

Living in rural Kansas, Mibs Beaumont is not eager to meet her thirteenth birthday.  While most girls her age cannot wait to become a teenager, Mibs knows that with her approaching birthday comes the reveal of her savvy.  On a day-long adventure of a lifetime, Mibs identifies and accepts her savvy, and finds peace in the strong relationships she has with her less-than-usual family and friends.  This 2009 Newbery Honor Book is a page-turner from start to finish!
