The Mighty Odds
by Amy Ignatow
read by Nate Begle
Part 1 of the Odds series
The Mighty Odds is first in a funny illustrated series about a diverse crew of middle school kids who develop very limited superhero powers after a strange accident and manage to become unlikely friends on the adventure of a lifetime. From the renowned author/illustrator of the Popularity Papers series, Amy Ignatow.
What do you get when you mix a sci-fi nerd, a cartoonist, a social outcast, and the most popular girl in school with a mysterious bus crash? Some very specific-and mighty odd-superpowers.
Martina can change her eye color; Nick can teleport four inches to the left; Farshad can develop super strength, but only in his thumbs; and Cookie can read minds, when those minds are thinking about directions.
Starring a diverse group of kids, this series' multiple narrators make for a quirky, contemporary read that tackles identity and stereotypes. Praised widely, Ignatow's characters have been called "very real" by the New York Times and "completely convincing" by The New Yorker.

Against the Odds
by Amy Ignatow
read by Nate Begle
Part 2 of the Odds series
In the second title in the slam-dunk new series from bestselling author Amy Ignatow, the Odds are back and trying to figure out just who inflicted these lame abilities on them in the first place. Nick can still teleport four inches to the left, and Farshad's thumbs are still super strong. Cookie can still read minds, if they're thinking of directions, and Martina can still change the color of her eyes. But now, Martina can see the invisible, and when Nick is super stressed, he can move a lot farther than four inches. As their powers evolve in possibly dangerous ways, the Odds are even more determined to solve the mystery of their origin, but it means interacting at school-a serious social risk to popular girl Cookie. Soon, it becomes clear that Auxano, the chemical company that employs half the town, is involved. With the help of some renegade Amish teenagers and Ed, the invisible bus driver, this unlikely group of companions will uncover a nefarious experiment in which they've become unwitting test subjects. They'll also begin to become something even more incredible-friends.

Odds & Ends
by Amy Ignatow
read by Nate Begle
Part 3 of the Odds series
The ragtag Odds crew's useless gifts have gotten out of control. Farshad's thumbs are so strong that just trying to send a text will break his phone, and Cookie can now send mental directions instead of just listening in on them with her telepathy. To make matters worse, a bunch of their less-than-gifted classmates have become town celebrities thanks to their suspiciously good exam results. But Jay and Nick realize that all these whiz kids have parents who work for Auxano, so they race off to find out what's really going on. Fans won't want to miss the conclusion to the adventures of this motley group of heroes and their patchwork powers!
