Omschrijving
An extraordinary tale about an ordinary boy in a world of heroes … Kid Normal is a fast-paced, humorous adventure with likeable heroes and a suitably ridiculous, evil villain
An extraordinary tale about an ordinary boy in a world of heroes … Kid Normal is a fast-paced, humorous adventure with likeable heroes and a suitably ridiculous, evil villain
So funny, it's almost criminal ... A fun and fast-paced read
Outrageous capers ... Amusingly surreal super-powers and a trust yourself message combine to strong effect with Erica Salcedo’s entertaining, huge-eyed images
A superhero story with a twist
Packed with very amusing asides, it’s a fun and fast-paced read that will make James and Smith into children’s heroes
Chock full of slapstick humour, 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
A superlative adventure story that will resonate with children who like to read whacky, wild things
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
A very promising start to a laugh-out-loud funny adventure series
Incredibly funny, witty and stuffed full of heart
...this phenomenal book is perfect for anyone in doubt or any one who is thirsty for adventure and it's perfect for any age. Just remember, if in doubt, there's always a silver lining to every cloud
This book was pretty funny, the main character gets enrolled in superhero school but he has no super powers. I enjoyed the way the book was written it kept me wanting to read more with a bit of mystery and some great humour!
I would rate this book a million out of 10, probably the best book I've read this year
Greg James is a familiar voice and face on radio and TV. He’s the host of BBC Radio 1’s award-winning Drivetime show and presents the UK’s Official Chart every Friday. On screen, Greg has hosted a variety of shows, most recently seen fronting BBC Children in Need. He is also the face of BT Sport’s cricket coverage and in 2016 raised over a million pounds for Sport Relief by completing five triathlons in five cities in five days. Greg has no superpowers. In his spare time he enjoys the idea of having hobbies. But in reality, he’s made all of them into work. Chris Smith is an award-winning journalist and broadcaster who delivers the news to millions of people every day as the presenter of Newsbeat on BBC Radio 1. Chris enjoyed a previous, glittering, literary career as the winner of the H.E. Bates Short Story Competition 1981 (under tens category) with his tale ‘Where Are the Brandy Snaps?’. Chris has no superpowers either, although he enjoys pretending his cat Mabel can fly by picking her up and running around. Illustrator Erica Salcedo studied Fine Art at Castilla-La Mancha University, before going on to study for a masters in Graphic Design. She uses a mixture of techniques to create her illustrations - from hand-drawing to digital manipulation - and always remembers to add a pinch of humour. Wolfish Stew (Bloomsbury), written by Susie Moore, was Erica's first picture book. She lives in Cuenca, Spain.
