Opis

One boy. One disappointing superpower. Can Dylan tame a bunch of hyper iguanas and come up with a masterful plan to save the WORLD? Yeah, probably ... but he's going to need a MASSIVE cheese pizza. Perfect for fans of Tom Gates, Future Ratboy and My Brother is a Superhero.

Recenzje

It's not often that you come across a children's book with a voice as strong as Bishop's unique spin on the super kids genre. His quippy conversational style of writing is perfect for parents reading to their younger kids and smart enough to keep young readers interested on their own. Providing the perfect sidekick to Bishop's text is Rikin Parekh's fun and quirky illustrations. One part Quentin Blake and one part Dr Seuss, Parkeh's depictions of Bishop's crazy world are perfectly in tune with the voice and feel of story and really help bring the story of Iguana Boy to life. Of all the child superheroes on the bookshelf, if I was a cat stuck up a tree I'd definitely want Dylan (sorry, Iguana Boy) to rescue me. Starburst Magazine 20180409

O autorze

James is a children's author, writer of the Iguana Boy series about a superhero who can talk to iguanas, and The Worst Day Ever!, an intergalactic adventure filled with aliens, magical gloop and poop jokes. He pretends that he writes poop jokes because he's a children's author, but the fact is even if he wasn't, he would still be making them all the time (just ask his kids!).
Previous work includes writing credits on Diddy TV, Justin's House and Gigglebiz, as well as "successfully" convincing 90's pop act Hanson to play at his wedding. Well, they didn't actually play, but they sent him on a honeymoon to Jamaica which James thinks is even better.
James spends his spare time thinking of inventive ways to engineer more spare time for himself.
So far unsuccessfully.

Rikin Parekh is a children's book illustrator based in North West London. He has two art degrees from Camberwell College of Arts and the University of Westminster.
