The school where every talent is oddly specific.
The Okayish Academy is a warm, funny middle-grade adventure about a kid who can do something absolutely normal, a school that calls it impossible, and a class of underpowered heroes who learn what they can do together.
An ordinary kid. An extraordinary class. A very inconvenient mystery.
A big-hearted story with very modest powers.
A serious school
Every student treats their suspiciously niche ability like it could save the world.
An ordinary new kid
He can do one thing that anyone can do, and somehow it becomes the academy's biggest mystery.
A real discovery
When the moment arrives, the supposedly lame powers prove that ordinary people can be extraordinary together.
