Savvy is a Middle Grade Literature series by Ingrid Law which was a runner-up for that year's Newbery Medal, following a large family with hereditary powers, or "savvies" that appear on their thirteenth birthdays, and which they must learn to "scumble" (or control their usage of). The first book, ''Savvy'', follows Mibs O'Connell, whose father has been in a car accident, causing her, her brothers Samson and Fish, and some friends to go try to see him, as Mibs hopes that her new power is to wake people up, only to find reason to question this.The second book, Scumble, follows Mib's cousin, Ledger Kale several years after that book. His new savvy is to uncontrollably cause things (watches, bikes, etc.) to fall apart. After a disastrous incident at Fish's wedding, he is left at his uncle's ranch to learn to control his powers (which soon turn out to entail not just making things fall apart, but reassembling them into something new), while trying to keep them secret from local snoop SJ Cabot (who he begins to develop a crush on), daughter of a local businessman foreclosing on everything in sight which reeks of the abnormal to him. Additional subplots in the novel include his grandfather's poor health, and other members of the family searching for a lost treasure supposedly left by the first-ever woman with a savvy.The third (and so far final) book, Switch features Mibs's sister Gypsy, who has the savvy to see in the future, suddenly having her world upheaved, when an unexplained magical event causes everyone inside the town with a savvy (Gypsy, Samson, their mother and their brother Tucker) to have their power radically changed. Now, Gypsy finds herself able to stop time, but baffled by how there are some people who seem immune to its effects, as well as by her senile grandmother wandering off and getting into danger due to one of Gypsy's last visions being of her about to jump off a clock tower. | |

This causes him to remember the words of his aunt, that trees don't just grow out ground "At least, not since we lost the last Beacham with any talent," causing him to realize SJ’s mother had a savvy and therefore she does too. | |

Wonder Twin Powers | |
| Savvy / int_d45cbb16 | comment |
Wonder Twin Powers: Marisol and Mesquite both have telekinetic abilities, but only Marisol can move things up and down, and only Mesquite can move them from side to side, requiring them to work together a lot. | |

| Savvy / int_d8963315 | comment |
Invisible Introvert: Samson is broody, quiet, and shy; appropriately enough, his savvy is to turn invisible. At first, anyway. | |

Unconventional Food Usage: In the sequel book Scumble, this is discussed when Ledge is mad at his Great-Aunt Jules, who goes back in time when she sneezes. He wants to dump pepper on her, so she'll sneeze and be sent way back in time. | |
