Poppy Mayberry, The Monday | Jennie Brown

What if your teacher could read your mind just because she was born on a Thursday? Or the kid next to you in class could turn back the clock just because he was a Wednesday? In the quirky town of Nova, all of this is normal. Poppy Mayberry, an almost-11-year-old Monday, should be able to pass notes in class or brush her dog, Pickle, without lifting a finger. Poppy's Monday telekinesis ability has some kinks and that plate of spaghetti she's passing may just end up on someone's head. If that's not hard enough, practically-perfect Ellie Preston is out to get her and Principal Wible wants to send Poppy to remedial summer school to work on her powers! It's enough to make a girl want to disappear. If only she were a Friday.

so-so

This book was cute, and a decent enough children's book, but not as enjoyable as I'd hoped. There were some grammatical and syntax issues, as well as issues with world building and plot development feeling authentic and easy to follow. The ending was more interesting than I expected, and it made me curious about the future of the four kids. I also like that it's more science fiction than fantasy for young girls. Need more SF for that demographic.
