Evy hides under a table at her mother's wedding. Her mother is making a huge mistake. The man she had fallen in love with was evil and controlling. Evy had tried to tell her. Her mother was very superstitious. After the wedding, just like Evy had predicted, John was very disrespectful and self-centered. Evy's mother gets pregnant with twins and Evy becomes very angry. When fall comes around, strange things start happening to Evy. She meets her Aunt Myra for the first time. Aunt Myra becomes very annoyed and turns Evy into a duck! Luckily, Evy has a gift or "trigger". It is shapshifting and invisibility. She is able to turn herself back human again. She learns she is a descendent of the Lippoliks. When Lippolikes turn thirteen they receive special thirteenth birthday jewlery. Evy gets a bracelet. When Evy is trying to save Clerance, a purple-butted skunk, she somehow travels many years from her time. Kallon, Evy's twin brother she had never met has taken over the world. There are no plants and the water has been poisoned. Evy goes on a frightening journey, accompanied by her Aunt Myra, Clerance, and Dr. Bagboy, a purple butted donkey, and tries to save America.

Opinion: 

This book was good, but not one of the best books I've ever read. I think a younger reader would have enjoyed this book a little more than I did. It is filled with action, love, and sadness. Kami Helm has an amazing imagination. She painted a very good picture in my head.
