Savvy

i picked this book up by chance and bought it after reading the first 10 pages because i didn't want to put it down. Mibs (short for Mississippi) is a wonderful character who turns 13 in the beginning of the story. it is an important age for anyone but especially for the Beaumont, who find out at 13 what their "savvy" is. Her brother Rocket can create electricity. Her brother Fish can make hurricanes. Her grandfather can move mountains. Now it's her turn.
But her father gets into an accident, turning everything upside down and sending them on an adventure that teaches them some hard life lessons.
