Green by day, hero by night! The Astounding Broccoli Boy is a funny, fast-paced, fantastic adventure from the Carnegie Medal-winning Frank Cottrell Boyce - now reissued with a brand-new cover.Rory Rooney likes to be prepared for all eventualities.

Stuck in the isolation ward of a hospital far from home with two other remarkably green children, Rory''s as confused by his new condition as the doctors are!What if turning green actually means you''ve turned into a superhero? Rory can''t wait to make it past hospital security and discover exactly what his superpower might be!The Astounding Broccoli Boy is the hilarious tale of an unlikely (very green) hero believing in himself and finding adventure. This edition features fantastic cover artwork and black and white inside illustrations from the incredible Steven Lenton.
