An Impossumble Summer

by Brenda W. Clough

Psammeads live in England, unicorns in France. But when Rianne moves from overseas to an American suburb she knows Virginia is not a magical place. Or is it?

Rianne and her siblings have lived all their lives overseas. When they arrive in an American suburb at the beginning of summer they know no one and there’s nothing to do. But there’s magical footprints in this house. Who excavated the tiny furnished room under the basement? Are there magical animals in Reston, Virginia?

[Debbie is on Storygraph · Rating 4 out of 5]

A super cute re-released middle grade contemporary fantasy about a family moving to a DC suburb and discovering an opossum who can control luck, known as the Impossumble. It's a bit dated (it was originally published in 1992) but still very readable.
