Summary
Summary
Author of The Big Splash and Emmy-winning writer for PBS's WordGirl, Jack D. Ferraiolo delivers the uproarious adventure of a different kind of hero. Behind every superhero stands a trusty-though less glamorous-sidekick. For Phantom Justice there is (drumroll,please) Bright Boy! Superfast and superstrong! Of course, when not fighting crime, Bright Boy leads a humbler existence as ordinary kid Scott Hutchinson. The superhero job might make for a plum gig, but after a humiliating incident with his spandex costume, Scott finds his world isn't exactly the stuff of dreams.Editorial Reviews
Editorial Reviews
“What starts as a tongue-in-cheek send-up of the superhero genre (complete with puberty-related embarrassing moments, costume malfunctions, and purposefully clichéd dialogue) rapidly swerves into new and engaging territory as Ferraiolo reveals the story’s true depths.”
—Publishers Weekly
“Comic dialogue, action-packed fight scenes, shocking character revelations, and plot twists galore make this a funny, suspenseful, thought-provoking page turner.” —Children’s Literature
“This is a fast-reading, cleverly told, entertaining tale.” —School Library Journal
“More twists than a pretzel factory.”
—Kirkus Reviews
