The Secret Order of the Gumm Street Girls

By: Elise Primavera

Narrated by: Colleen Delany

For seven years, bad luck has followed Ivy around like a dog on a leash. And now her mother has dragged her to live in a creepy old house on Gumm Street, where the weather may be perfect but the neighbors are worse than unfriendly.

Then a pair of mysterious ruby-red slippers leads Ivy on an unforgettable adventure with those very same neighbors—bookish Pru, stuck-up Cat, and wannable adventurer Franny. Together, they travel to the jaw-droppingly strange lands of Spoz, and Spudz, and Ooze, and battle the fashionably mad Cha-Cha Staccato, who bears a frightening resemblance to a certain wicked witch . . .

As hilarious as it is original, as inventive as it is true-to-life, The Secret Order of the Gumm Street Girls is an unforgettable take on girlhood, piano recitals, The Wizard of Oz, and the dependable everyday magic of family and friendship.

Love it!

This is a really interesting book. I enjoy grade school or YA books occasionally, and I will listen to this one again. If you enjoyed the books written by E. Nesbit, you will most likely enjoy this. Colleen Delany is one of the best Audible narrators; she reads at the perfect speed and is able to put a unique voice to each character.
