"An enjoyable reminder that what makes you weird may also make you a winner" - THE TIMES, Children's Book of the Week

Gertrude, Eugenia, and Dee-Dee Porch do not belong. They don't belong in the snooty town of Antiquarium, where the only dog allowed is the bichon frise. They don't belong with their adoptive family, where all their cousins are named Lavinia. And after getting kicked out of the last etiquette school that would take them, the girls expect to be sent away for good... until they receive a mysterious invitation.

Suddenly the girls are under the tutelage of the infamous Millicent Quibb - a mad scientist with worms in her hair and oysters in her bathtub. Dangerous? Yes! More fun than they've ever had? Absolutely! But when the sisters are asked to save their town from an evil cabal of mad scientists, they must learn to embrace what has always made them stand out - before it's too late!

Perfect for fans of Roald Dahl and Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events, The Millicent Quibb School of Etiquette for Young Ladies of Mad Scienceis the unbelievably hilarious, madcap adventure debut from comedic superstar Kate McKinnon - an unforgettable and laugh-out-loud funny story, and a warm-hearted celebration of individuality, imagination, and eccentricity.
