The authors combine readings of specific scenes with

Inside an ordinary middle school in an ordinary city, a small redheadedeighth grader is doing something very ordinary, indeed.Ever since Charlotte Mielswetzski and her cousin, Zee, saved the world, life has been rather ordinary.

It’s not like they can simply announce that Greek myths are real or proclaim they have returned from the Underworld, whe
