The Powers

by Kevin Stevens

Poor Suzie – Dad has set the kitchen on fire again and Mum has turned the rain on indoors to douse the flames. JP has flown straight into a wall, and the dog, Pucker, is a whirlwind of paws and ears and noisy howls. Meet the the not so super superheroes. The Powers are an Irish superhero family who have some incredible powers, but are also decidedly lacking in any ability to control them. When they go on holiday, the family vows to take a break from their superpowers. But when their Ford Fiasco breaks down, an ancient treasure map turns up in their caravan and a pirate ship appears in the bay, what’s a ‘pooper-soured’ family to do? A perfectly-paced adventure story featuring a colourful and genuinely funny family for elementary readers or children age 8+, The Powers will entertain and charm young readers.
