THE ASTOUNDING BROCCOLI BOY By: Frank Cottrell Boyce
Rory is a thoughtful boy who is quite small and he get bullied a lot by Tommy-Lee. He is so excited for a field trip, only to be pushed in the water by other classmates. That wouldn't be so bad if he hadn't turned green. I don't mean army green, or all the other shades, I mean the color of broccoli. Everyone is worried about him being contagious, so he is sent to the hospital and who should his roommate be than his nemesis Tommy-Lee. He too has turned this incredible color. Now the doctor is determined to find the cause, lots of blood tests, urine samples, all green. Then Rory discovers that Tommy-Lee sleepwalks and he of course has to follow. It takes them all over London in the middle of the night. Will these kids who have proclaimed themselves superheros become normal again? A great read. Ages 8-12 Walden Pond Press $16.99
