In Superopolis everyone has a superpower! Well…almost everyone. Meet Ordinary Boy.

In a town where everyone is a superhero, what if you were the only person with no superpowers at all?

Welcome to the life of Ordinary Boy. He’s...well, he’s pretty much exactly as his name suggests. But things are not so super in Superopolis these days, with the evil Professor Brain-Drain on the loose. To make matters worse, Ordinary Boy and his friends are thrown into the middle of a baffling mystery. Forget superheroes. In a city where everyone is extraordinary, this just might be a job for...Ordinary Boy!

With black-and-white illustrations throughout, this “celebration of the comics genre” (Kirkus) is perfect for readers who love the New York Times bestselling Captain Underpants series and Michael Buckley’s New York Times bestselling NERDS series, as well as young fans of Marvel and DC Comics—and anyone who’s ever longed to be super.

I liked this book, it was very interesting and it really hooked me in.

Well first i thought it was boring. Then i started loving it. It's just about a ordinary kid. expect for the fact that every one is a superhero. Except for Oboy, (thats what real fans call him.) ,he has no power what so ever. He says how every baby doesn't take long to show there superpower. For example. If the baby starts floating they will call him/her floating baby, older Floating Boy/Girl, even older, Floating man/Woman. you get the picture. some parents of kids come up silly names of the book. Its funny really.

this book is SOOOOO good.i love it!!!!!read it1read it!i picked it out cause it was my reading level.i didnt think id like it....BUT I LOVED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
