The Astounding Broccoli Boy is the hilarious tale of an unlikely (and very green) hero believing in himself and finding adventure. Written by the award-winning UK Children's Laureate 2024–2026, Frank Cottrell-Boyce and illustrated throughout by Steven Lenton. Perfect for children aged 8+.
Green by day, hero by night!
Rory Rooney likes to be prepared for all eventualities. His favourite book is Don't Be Scared, Be Prepared, and he has memorized every page of it. He could even survive a hippo attack. He knows that just because something is unlikely doesn't mean it won't ever happen . . .
But Rory isn't prepared when he suddenly and inexplicably turns green. Stuck in an isolation ward in a hospital far from home with two other remarkably green children, Rory's as confused by his new condition as the medics seem to be.
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 . . .
'Brilliantly funny, believable and very human' - The Bookseller
'A funny, silly and underlyingly serious story about self-belief . . . and the value of being nice to people' - The Sunday Times
