Description

Mik Murdoch is just a regular, everyday kid… until he decides it is his destiny to become a superhero. But, just how does one become a superhero anyway? Mik doesn't have any of the normal things that would fulfill his dream; he doesn't have special powers, nor billions of dollars or technology. He isn't even the world's greatest detective. It shouldn't be all that hard though, should it? People get super powers in the comic books all the time. So Mik tries everything he can think of to get powers.

"Mik Murdock reminds me a great deal of the young Laura Engles, in that he cares about his family and friends, often putting their needs above his own.

I hadn't planned to read straight through when I picked up the story, but that's exactly what I did." - Reviewer Denna Holm

Featured Reviews

Clever middle-school book, reminiscent of Daniel Pinkwater stories. A little silly, a little unrealistic, but with a lot of heart. Mik is a great hero, even if he doesn't have super powers.

Fun for adults as well as kids. Mik's voice is very genuine.
