Ordinary Boy by William Boniface


It’s a bird, it’s a plane, it’s Superboy! That’s right boys and girls, Ordinary Boy is a young boy growing up in the fantasy town of Superopolis. In the new book Ordinary Boy, published in 2008 by Harper Collins, everyone in the fantasy town of Superopolis is born with their own superhero super power, everyone that is, except Ordinary Boy. O’Boy as his buddies affectionately call him has a friend with super human strength, another that can make his body glow, and a third who can change into other states of matter. O’Boys best friend, aptly named Stench is best known for his superhuman ability to pass gas! O’Boy and his friends must join forces to defeat the evil villain, Professor Brain-Drain. Pick up Superboy by William Boniface next time you’re at the library and you’re sure to be rolling on the floor laughing nonstop! Stephen Gilpin’s illustrations are eye catching and engaging, in the true manner of comic book illustrations. This book is along the lines of The Captain Underpants series, but in my opinion even better! If you’re between 8 and 12 years old, this book is a must read! Be sure to check out Ordinary Boy at the library today!

Check out the author, William Boniface’s website. Be sure to read the “About William Boniface” section for a sure grin. 
