If you are a little quirky, like to read about quirky things, live in a family of people you consider quirks, go to a quirky school and have quirky friends well you will surely enjoy this frivolously, quirky little book about quirks.
If you don’t have all of the above but are considering becoming a quirk, want to have quirk friends or even half way suspect your friends or even yourself are about to become a quirk, or quirky, read on.
Because this book is all about a family of quirks who consider their life is perfectly normal and everyone else has the problems. What a great way to look at the other side of life as you know it, or perhaps don’t!
The trouble with the Quirk family is that in spite of their rationale about how they live, somehow there is one person in their family that has some very funny ideas, in fact she is “normal”, perfectly, earth shatteringly normal.
After moving about the country trying out one town or another, the Quirk family finally settle on a town called Normal to hopefully make their permanent home. The twins Penelope and Molly start school and all goes well until little brother Finn become bored with his new, low key lifestyle.
Grandpa Quill tried to cope, but somehow still seems to get into too much mischief and Mum and Dad really can’t see what all the fuss is about when the good people of Normal begin to realise that perhaps the Quirks were a little bit different.
Trouble is all Molly really wants, she is the normal one, is for life to be like everyone else in the town of Normal, simply boringly ‘normal’.
Join the good people of Normal, the Quirk family and the endless adventures, mayhem and mystique their gift of magic brings to the little town of Normal, USA.
