A super-silly new series from acclaimed author and humorist D.L. Garfinkle
Twins Nate and Lisa Zupinski find a supernatural rubber chicken who can grant a superpower to anyone they choose. In each book of the series, the twins choose a superpower that they think will help someone they know. But nothing ever goes exactly as planned. A rollicking series about the power of wishes to do good--AND to cause trouble--with a whole lot of laughs along the way.
When Nate accidentally breaks his friend Jason's glasses, he asks the rubber chicken to grant Jason super vision. But when Ms. Crabpit intercepts the chicken, super vision transforms her from tyrant teacher into super teacher! Can Nate figure out how to undo the mess before Ms. Crabpit actually (Gasp!) teaches them something?
