I always root for the underdog, so that's one reason why I love this book so much. Kindhearted, ten-year-old Newt Newman doesn't usually mind growing up in the shadow of his high school footballstar brother, Chris, although he wouldn't mind a little more attention from his parents. When Chris is knocked into a coma, Newt's already distracted parents really check out. Fast forward to Halloween. Newt's friends come up with a costume for him and Newt's alter ego, Captain Nobody, is born.
Not only does Newt feel more confident as Captain Nobody, he becomes an unlikely hero. Kids will relate to this young person with a heart of gold who's willing to go out of his way to help someone in need. A must-read for all the shy, introverted, artistic, or creative kids who often fly under the radar, Captain Nobody is filled with humor and compassion.
