My Brother Is a Superhero: 10th Anniversary by David Solomons

Children  Book of the Year, The British Book Industry Awards 2016 - Overall winner of Waterstones Children's Book Prize 2016 - Shortlisted for The Branford Boase Award 2016.

A new edition of My Brother is a Superhero that launched David Solomans and his brilliant series.

Oh the anguish! Luke is a comic-reading super-hero expert, but he’s gone for a wee at the crucial moment when an alien arrives in his tree-house and it’s his never-read-a-comic-in-his-life brother Zach who gets superpowers and instructions to save the universe – life couldn’t get any unfairer. But even super-heroes need back up, and when Zach is kidnapped, it falls to Luke to save his brother and the world.

This is an excellent adventure story with real heart, that’s also properly funny, with humour that comes from the characters as well as the situation.
