Family wields the greatest magic.A missing father. A mother bewitched. Wilhelmina must use her unpredictable magic to catch whoever-or whatever-is stalking her parents. Will her powers be enough to restore her family? When Wilhelmina accidentally sets her remedial magic class on fire, she is sent to live in the ordinary world with a mother she barely knows. Her adjustment gets off to a very rocky start. She has sudden, unexplainable bursts of magic-mostly while navigating the middle-school minefield-and her mother's behaving like she's under some spell. Despite her handicapped magic, Wilhelmina vows to get to the bottom of it all-even if she could vanish without a trace just like her father. Wilhelmina Quigley: Magic School Dropout is a fish-out-of-water story with touches of mystery, fantasy, and humor. "A witty tale of enchantment."
