Hey! Have you read?

Super Finn by Leonie Agnew

reviewed by Cole Room 6

Summary: A kid named Finn and his friend Brain try their hardest to become superheroes and to get an 'A' on their test (which is an essay about who you want to be when you grow up.) The boys try to become superheros.

Recommendation: 

This book is not about straight up superheros. It's about a person trying to become one.
