Super Ghost cover

In Super Ghost, a young boy teams up with an invisible superhero to restore excitement and adventure to a world without heroes.

In Super Ghost, readers are introduced to a world where ordinary kids embark on extraordinary adventures filled with laughter and excitement. The story kicks off with the shocking news that the world-famous superhero, Dr. Extraordinary, has been blown up inside a giant robot, leaving twelve-year-old Sonny Nelson heartbroken. The absence of heroes creates a dull and uninspiring world for Sonny, who longs for the thrill and inspiration that superheroes bring to everyday life.

However, the plot takes a fascinating twist when Dr. Extraordinary mysteriously returns, but with an unexpected twist: he is invisible to everyone except Sonny. This unique situation thrusts Sonny into a whirlwind of adventure as he navigates the challenges of keeping Dr. Ex's existence a secret while trying to restore the hero to his rightful place in the world. The bond that forms between Sonny and Dr. Ex becomes the heart of the story, showcasing themes of friendship, bravery, and the importance of believing in the extraordinary.

Super Ghost is not just a tale of superheroes; it’s a delightful blend of humor, action, and the whimsical imagination of its authors, Greg James and Chris Smith. The engaging narrative and relatable characters ensure that readers of all ages will find themselves captivated by this madcap adventure, making it a perfect choice for family reading time.
