My Brother Is a Superhero


Book Description

The award-winning #1 international bestseller that's perfect for fans of The Last Kids on Earth and Diary of a Wimpy Kid. Luke Parker was just your average comic book fan until his boring, teacher’s pet, helps-old-ladies-across-the-street brother Zack got turned into a superhero. Luke can’t believe the unfairness of it all—he’s the one with the encyclopedic knowledge of everything from Ant-Man to Wolverine! At least he can help Zack—aka Star Guy—with all the important parts of becoming a superhero, like using his newfound powers and deciding whether or not to wear a cape. But when Star Guy gets into super-size trouble, it’s up to Luke—and his intrepid neighbor, Lara—to rescue his big brother and, with a little luck, help him save the world. * “A non-stop action-packed, laugh-out-loud winner of a story.” —School Library Journal, starred review “A loving tribute to the genre consumed with capes, masks, supervillains, and great responsibility.” —Kirkus Reviews "Readers will enjoy the deadpan narration that reveals the unexpected difficulties of being a modern-day superhero.” —Publishers Weekly

My Real Life Superhero


Book Description

Did you know that? Ned Kelly (1855-1880) (Edward to his Mum) had brown hair but a dirty read beard and moustache. His Dad was Irish and nick-named “Red” because of his raid hair. When Ned was 11, he saved a boy named Richard Shelton from drowning in Hughes Creek, Avenel, Victoria. Richard’s parents gave Ned a green silk sash to thank him for rescuing their son. Ned wore that sash at the “Last Stand” at Glenrowan, where he was finally captured by policemen and taken to Old Melbourne Gaol where he was eventually hanged. Ned and Dan really did hide out in the Wombat Ranges near Mansfield, Victoria when the dreadful police trooper (Fitzpatrick) claimed Ned had tried to kill him. £100 rewards were issued for the brother’s capture. It was in these mountains that Joe Byrne (born 1857) and Steve Hart (born 1860) joined the brothers…all four riding as ‘THE KELLY GANG”. Ned’s armour was made from the bits of old plough. It actually weighed over 40 Kilos. Even though he was the last man left standing at Glenrowan in June 1880 (where the gang was finally destroyed)… it was bullet wounds in the legs that left Ned too injured to escape.
