Fire Boy
J.M. Joseph, Neil Gardner
Fire Boy is a laugh-out-loud story about friendship, unexpected superpowers, magical sweets, Inca legends and a cat named Lemon - perfect for fans of My Brother is A Superhero and The Parent Agency. When 11-year-old Aidan receives a mysterious package of sweets from South America in the post, he and his two best friends Sadie and Hussein eat one sweet each - and suddenly develop amazing superpowers. Sadie can move objects with her mind. Hussein can control any electronic device. And Aidan can ignite his body at will...though he can't always control the resulting flames. When they discover that the sweets were sent by a dangerous criminal who is trying to hunt them down to get them back, they have to use all their new powers to outwit him ... before everything goes up in a fiery blaze. But can three ordinary kids keep their powers a secret? Will Aidan learn to control his fiery capabilities? Or will the ultimate bad guy spoil the whole adventure?

Ok. Quite funny. All about superhero’s and powers. Not for me but maybe for others.

I like this book. My favourite character is Adian. I recommend it to people aged 9-11.

This is really good. I can't wait for the next book, it did say there was a next book. This is written in first person so only tells us what Fire Boy is thinking. I would like to see some of the other characters as the main point of view, especially Sadie. I would recommend this to anyone who likes superheroes and sweets.

It's funny and it captures you. You want to read more. The short chapters are good and it's quite mysterious.

My favourite part of the book is at the beginning when the package is delivered because it introduced the character and at the same time the story plot unravels.
