The first book in a laugh-out-loud funny adventure series for 8+ readers from popular radio personalities Greg James and Chris Smith.

When Murph Cooper rocks up to his new school several weeks into the beginning of term, he can't help but feel a bit out of his depth.

And it's not because he's worried about where to sit, and making friends, and fitting in, or not knowing where the loos are. It's because his mum has enrolled him at a school for superheroes by mistake. And unlike his fellow students, who can all control the weather or fly or conjure tiny horses from thin air, Murph has no special abilities whatsoever.

But just because you don't have superpowers, it doesn't mean you can't save the day. Let's hope Murph realises that, and quick because not far away is a great big bad guy who is half man and half wasp, and his mind is abuzz with evil plans …

It's time for Kid Normal to become a hero!

Perfect for fans of David Solomons, David Baddiel and Danny Wallace. Featuring brilliant illustrations by Erica Salcedo throughout.

Greg James

Greg James is the host of Radio 1 's Drivetime show and the Official Chart.

He is also a familiar face on TV, and in February he completed his #GREGATHLON five triathlons in five different cities on five consecutive days raising over eE1,000,000 for Sport Relief.

In 2014 he won Gold for Best Entertainment Show ' at the last ever Radio Academy Awards, which arguably makes him the most entertaining radio presenter in perpetuity.

Greg has no superpowers. In his spare time he enjoys the idea of having hobbies. But in reality, he's made all of them into work.

Chris Smith

Chris Smith is an award-winning journalist and radio presenter, most frequently heard as the voice of Radio 1's Newsbeat as well as hosting shows on BBC Radio 5 Live.

Chris enjoyed a previous, and glittering, literary career as the winner of the H.E. Bates Short Story Competition 1981 (under 10s section) with his tale Where Are the Brandy Snaps' Chris has no superpowers either.

His hobbies include screen printing and self-effacement. Together on Greg 's show and in their weekly podcast, Chris and Greg are responsible for some of radio's most ludicrous games and characters, which genuinely wouldn't make any sense if we tried to explain them here.
