Emma & 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 & 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?
