For a hilarious and adventurous read, pick up My Brother Is a Superhero by David Solomons. This award-winning children's book from a beloved British author tells the story of Luke and his superhero brother Zack. Winner of the Waterstones Children's Book Prize, it is perfect for fans of funny stories.
Luke is a comic-mad eleven-year old who shares a treehouse with his geeky older brother, Zack. Luke's only mistake is to go for a wee right at the wrong time. While he's gone, an alien gives his undeserving, never-read-a-comic-in-his-life brother superpowers and then tells him to save the universe. Luke is massively annoyed about this, but when Zack is kidnapped by his arch-nemesis, Luke and his friends have only five days to find him and save the world...
