My Super Sister and the Birthday Party - Hardcover

Emma and Saffie are going to stay with their grandparents for the summer to learn how to use their superpowers. Grandma has powers too, but Grandpa doesn't, and he definitely doesn't like the gnomes doing the gardening, or the washing-up doing itself - he'd rather play with his model aeroplanes. As the summer passes, the girls are having lots of fun - Emma brings a whole doll's house to life (and even learns to bake tiny cakes in the kitchen), but all Saffie wants is to cheer up Grandpa - so she decides to throw him the best party ever. What could possibly go wrong?
