Switch by Ingrid Law

Switch by Ingrid Law

Gypsy Beaumont has always been a whirly-twirly free spirit, so as her thirteenth birthday approaches, she hopes to get a savvy that will let her fly or dance up to the stars. Instead, she wakes up on her birthday with blurry vision...and then starts seeing flashes of the future and past. But her visions don't prepare her for Momma and Poppa's announcement that their very un-magical and downright mean Grandma Pat has Alzheimer's and is coming to live with them. Suddenly her savvy along with her family's switches to its opposite. It's savvy mayhem, and no one could have predicted what would happen on their trip to bring Grandma Pat home...not even Gypsy. With her trademark style and whimsical, beautiful language, Ingrid Law has written a wonderfully moving coming-of- age story about family ties and new friends, with a whole lot of magic mixed in.
