The Millicent Quibb School of Etiquette for Young Ladies of Mad Science

"The SNL and Barbie star calls her first novel part of her “mission … to give a private nod to the next generation of weirdos.” Much like the author herself, the Porch sisters are outcasts, especially in the early 1900s town where Kate McKinnon’s mystery takes place. They love bats, slugs and building odd contraptions. Kicked out of yet another etiquette school, the girls meet the mad scientist Millicent Quibb, who enlists them to help her rescue the town from a ginormous, hungry worm whose mouth is “lined all the way around with crunching teeth made of thick rocks.” McKinnon’s delightfully eccentric humor is all over Millicent Quibb. Big bonus: She and her sister narrate the audiobook. (For ages 8 to 12)"
