Magic that refuses to follow the rules

At Dunwiddle Magic School, Nory and her classmates are placed in an Upside-Down Magic class where each student’s abilities go awry in a different way. Nory combines two animal transformations, Elliott’s fire magic turns icy, and Andres struggles with involuntary floating. These mismatched powers shape both the classroom’s unconventional lessons and the trouble that follows when magic misbehaves. The opening book in the series sets up a school-based fantasy around unusual abilities, unpredictable mishaps, and a group of students learning in a class built for magic that doesn’t work as expected.
