From Frank Cottrell Boyceâthe beloved, award-winning, New York Timesâbestselling author of Millions and Cosmicâcomes another hilarious, heartbreaking, and completely original middle grade novel.
Rory Rooney likes to be prepared for anything. That sort of planning pays off when youâre the smallest kid in your class. Rory is even prepared (mostly) for Tommy-Lee, his nemesis, who starts most days by throwing Rory out of the back of the school bus. Donât be scared, his favorite book says, be prepared. And Rory aims to be. Whatâs more heroic than that?
But Rory isnât prepared when he suddenly and inexplicably turns green and finds himself stuck in an experimental hospital ward. The doctors are just as baffled as Rory is, and thatâs when he begins to wonder: What if this isnât caused by his genes, or a virus, or something he ate? What if itâs something even more extraordinary? After all, more than a few superheroesâ careers began when they turned green. Could this be a sign that heâs meant for something greater? Rory is going to find outâand thatâs going to start with escaping from the hospital.Â
