How to Be a Supervillain (How to Be a Supervillain #01)
In this rollicking middle-grade adventure and national bestseller, Michael Fry's witty text and hysterical artwork combines super hero action with classic fish-out-of-water humor.
Victor Spoil comes from a long line of famous super villains and he's fully expected to join their ranks one day. But to his family's utter disappointment, Victor doesn't have a single bad-guy bone in his body. He won't run with scissors, he always finishes his peas, and he can't stand to be messy. Hopeless!
As a last-ditch effort before they give up and let him be a--gasp!--civilian, Victor's exasperated parents send him to apprentice under a disgraced super villain called The Smear. This matchup starts off as a complete disaster, but Victor and The Smear eventually find that they have a lot to learn from each other.
When the stakes get high as Victor is forced to choose between his mentor and his family morals (or lack thereof)... what will the world's nicest bad guy do?
Target age group 8-11
