Life is anything but normal for 11-year-old Gortimer Gibbons and his two best pals as they survive together in a surreal world of eccentric characters and strange happenings.

While trying to help the unluckiest kid on Normal Street, Gortimer accidentally jinxes himself with bad luck. Now Gortimer, Mel and Ranger must find a way to set things straight before a wave of misfortune threatens Normal Street's annual Road Rocket Race.

When Mel worries that her rival is the frontrunner for this year's school science fair, she scrambles to build a project that will blow everyone away.

When Gortimer learns a piece of information he would rather forget, he seeks help from an incredibly chipper but incredibly memory-impaired resident of Normal Street.

The gang races to restore Gortimer's voice, stolen by a mysterious figure driving a ghostly bookmobile that appears on Normal Street for only one day each year. 

Shortly after the students elect Mel the president of the student council, she is dethroned after the unlikely Ranger proves himself to be the stuff of legend and becomes The Once and Future Student Council President. 

Gortimer keeps having the same strange dream about a frightening underwater encounter -- and his mounting fears are getting in the way of his junior lifeguard training.

To celebrate a rare astronomical event, Mel invites all her friends to a spooky sleepover, complete with ghost stories galore. But when it seems like an actual spirit has crashed the party, they all must hurry to solve the mystery before they become ghost stories themselves.

After Ranger accidentally causes havoc at his family’s bakery, he flees the scene to avoid getting into trouble, but his growing sense of guilt has an unusual effect. 

When Mel starts consulting a children’s fortune teller game for advice on the future, she finds herself attempting to outsmart fate.

Gortimer’s curiosity is piqued when he discovers a mysterious signature.  Is it the autograph of a new student at Normal Middle school… or has it been here all along?

On the eve of his 13th birthday, Ranger and Mel lead Gortimer on a scavenger hunt through town to find the fabled lost treasure of Normal Street.

With his Dad in town for a short visit, Gortimer goes out of his way to ensure his happiness doesn’t fade by creating a rainbow over Normal Street. But once all of the residents start acting unusually happy, Mel and Ranger wonder if he’s gone a step too far.
