5.0

Definitely in the vein of Harry Potter, and a good choice for younger kids who don't think they want to tackle Potter yet. Also has a touch of Roald Dahl with the evil aunts and even the grandmother being pretty wicked. I liked the different 'powers' that each 'endowed' person has - interesting choices and they might bring about a good discussion about whether having a 'power' is a blessing or a curse.
