It's time for Kid Normal to become a hero!
Murph Cooper has a problem.
His new school is top secret and super weird. His classmates can all fly or control the weather or conjure tiny horses from thin air. And what's Murph's extraordinary skill? Um, oh yeah – he hasn't got one.
Just as well there are no revolting supervillains lurking nearby, their minds abuzz with evil plans. There are!? Right. Ok, then...
It's time for Kid Normal to become a hero!
Reviews---
“An extraordinary tale about an ordinary boy in a world of heroes … Kid Normal is a fast-paced, humorous adventure with likable heroes and a suitably ridiculous, evil villain” – Times Educational Supplement
“So funny, it's almost criminal ... A fun and fast-paced book” – Independent
“Outrageous capers ... Amusingly surreal super-powers and a trust yourself message combine to strong effect with Erica Salcedo's entertaining, huge-eyed images” – Guardian
“Packed with very amusing asides, it's a fun and fast-paced book that will make James and Smith into children's heroes” – Western Mail
“Chock full of slapstick humor, outrageous characters and pop culture references. It mocks school pecking orders and will make all kids who have fallen foul of them feel much better about it. And somehow, it ties all the mania together in a credible and thrilling story” – The Bookbag
“This spoof superhero epic certainly delivers deliciously dastardly villains, capes, tights and mild-mannered heroes. Yet it also explores familiar school anxieties that everyone else is smarter, stronger, better” – BookTrust
“A very promising start to a laugh-out-loud funny adventure series” – Parents in Touch
