Thunderbot's Day of Doom

This is the forth book in the 'Superhero School' Series. Superheroes in training - Stan, Minnie, Miles and Pudding the Wonderdog are again put to the test, when disgruntled local weather man Dennis Trigg highjacks the winning weather robot from the school science fair. High jinks ensue in this fast paced meteorological tale. The students have to battle through tornadoes, blizzards and the odd crash landing in the school compost heap whilst Thunderbot holds Britain's Summer to ransom! The adventure culminates on the doorstep of Buckingham Palace where, despite the difficulties of parking the school mini bus, 'Mighty High's' students are victorious. The story is interspersed with excerpts from 'The Pocket Guide for Superheroes' which adds an interesting break in the flow of the plot and added enlightenment on everything you might need to know to save the world. Well-imagined whole page illustrations throughout the book make the story even more enjoyable. This is a great series for emerging independent readers, especially those with a fascination with all things 'super'! 146 pages (with illustrations) / Ages 7+ / Reviewed by Emily Beale, librarian.
