Kid Normal and the Super Zeroes used to save the day in secret. But suddenly everyone knows who they are. Oily villain Nicholas Knox has told the public that superheroes are dangerous. He wants to lock them all up and take over the world! *Cue evil cackling* Murph must expose Knox’s evil plan, or the world of heroes is doomed forever!

...you can come at it fresh, having had no previousencounters with ‘’capability-free’’ Murph and his super-powered pals. The gang are back in motion thanks to slimy supervillain Knox, who wants to take over the world. There is mild peril, silliness, wordplay, and much fun-poking * The i *
There is mild peril, silliness, word play, and much fun poking (mainly at politician-style characters), but it's all bound together with strong messages on friendship, teamwork, and the inner strengths we all have, it's just a matter of identifying them. * Woman's Way *
PRAISE FOR KID NORMAL: So funny, it's almost criminal * Independent *
Outrageous capers for eight and up … Amusingly surreal super-powers and a trust yourself message combine to strong effect with Erica Salcedo’s entertaining, huge-eyed images * Guardian *
An extraordinary tale about an ordinary boy in a world of heroes … A fast-paced, humorous adventure with likeable heroes and a suitably ridiculous, evil villain * Times Educational Supplement *
Packed with very amusing asides, it’s a fun and fast-paced read that will make James and Smith into children’s heroes * Western Mail *
Chock full of slapstick humour, outrageous characters and pop culture references. It mocks school pecking orders and will make all kids who have fallen foul of them feel much better about it. And somehow, it ties all the mania together in a credible and thrilling story * The Bookbag *
A superlative adventure story that will resonate with children who like to read whacky, wild things * Books Monthly *
This spoof superhero epic certainly delivers: deliciously dastardly villains, capes, tights and mild-mannered heroes. Yet it also explores familiar school anxieties that everyone else is smarter, stronger, better * BookTrust *
A very promising start to a laugh-out-loud funny adventure series * Parents in Touch *
Incredibly funny, witty and stuffed full of heart * Book Lover Jo *
