Description

After a dramatic jailbreak at a top-secret prison, the planet's most dangerous supervillains are on the loose! Luckily, Murph Cooper and the Super Zeroes are on hand to chase them down. But though they manage to bring in a whole host of bad guys, they can't find their nemesis Magpie anywhere.

Little do they know that he's linked up with another old enemy.... the super smarmy Nicholas Knox is back! Together, they've developed a dastardly machine that can GIVE people superpowers! In the wrong hands, it has the potential to bring about the end of the World of Heroes as we know it … and it just happens to be in the wrongest hands of all.

Will the Super Zeroes triumph against the odds as they use their unusual talents and wits to bring down the world's craftiest villains?

About the Author

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 Suzi Moore, was Erica's first picture book. Erica is the illustrator of the Kid Normal series by Greg James and Chris Smith, as well as Pirate Stew and a book in the Bloomsbury Readers series, The Great Cake Race. She lives in Cuenca, Spain.

Greg James is a familiar voice and face on radio and TV. He's the host of BBC Radio 1's breakfast show. On screen, Greg has hosted a variety of shows, most recently seen fronting BBC Children in Need. He is also a huge cricket fan and has presented many related programmes. He 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. With his former co-presenter on Radio 1, Chris Smith, he is the author of the very popular children's book series, KID NORMAL.

The Rt Hon Lord Smith of Finsbury was Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport in Tony Blair's cabinet.

Reviews

“Should appeal to readers who enjoy the Captain Underpants and Wimpy Kid series.” —School Library Connection on KID NORMAL

“Packed with dry wit . . . Salcedo's playfully frenetic illustrations complement James and Smith's silly adventure and its good-natured sense of wonder.” —Publishers Weekly on KID NORMAL

“A funny, quirky, action-filled adventure.” —SLC on KID NORMAL AND THE ROUGE HEROES

“James and Smith show how an unassuming boy can save the day: with equal parts heart and oddball jokes.” —Kirkus Reviews on KID NORMAL

“The Super Zeroes . . . spring into action and, through teamwork, demonstrate that leadership ability, selfless courage, and people skills are as 'super' as any other powers.” —Booklist on KID NORMAL
