It all starts one fall evening when Icky loses an unwinnable fight with her brainiac twin brother. Even if she uses her self-taught coping routine to tune-out, detach, and move on, it's simply no match for the gazillions of thoughts that jam in the middle of her throat. As this ball of words unclogs in a huge explosion, it can't be contained any longer... "Shut the front door-I must be in the wrong family!" Feeling invincible, the girl carries a pillow, a hastily packed doll case, and a clear decision-she must leave on a quest to find her true family.
But this will be no ordinary night. After meeting a mysterious Old Lady who appears on a magical boat, the girl is assured: "If you still believe you're in the wrong family come morning, you'll be whisked away to another one-forever." Icky has one night to decide her fate. Will this simple promise solve her dilemma, or is it an eerie warning of things to come?”
