Iguana Boy, For National Curriculum Key Stage 2, Interest age: from c 6 years, Humorous stories (Children's / Teenage)
One boy. One disappointing superpower. Can Dylan tame a bunch of hyper iguanas and come up with a masterful plan to save the WORLD? Yeah, probably ... but he's going to need a MASSIVE cheese pizza. Perfect for fans of TOM GATES, FUTURE OF RATBOY and MY BROTHER IS A SUPERHERO.
Dylan has wanted a superpower for as long as he can remember, especially since his brother and sister have got really cool ones.
But when his wish finally comes true, Dylan is MIGHTILY disappointed. For Dylan has become ... Iguana Boy. He can talk to Iguanas ... RUBBISH!
And when supervillain Celina Shufflebottom kidnaps all the superheroes in London, Dylan must work out how to use his new team of chatty iguanas to save the day. He's going to have to think outside the box, (the pizza box), if he's going to become the hero he's always dreamed of.
If he's going to make Iguana Boy cool.
'HILARIOUS and so silly - superheroes, reptiles and pizza ... AWESOME, why didn't I think of that?!' Tom Fletcher

James Bishop
James is a children's author, writer of the Iguana Boy series about a superhero who can talk to iguanas, and The Worst Day Ever!, an intergalactic adventure filled with aliens, magical gloop and poop jokes. He pretends that he writes poop jokes because he's a children's author, but the fact is even if he wasn't, he would still be making them all the time (just ask his kids!).
Previous work includes writing credits on Diddy TV, Justin's House and Gigglebiz, as well as "successfully" convincing 90's pop act Hanson to play at his wedding. Well, they didn't actually play, but they sent him on a honeymoon to Jamaica which James thinks is even better.
James spends his spare time thinking of inventive ways to engineer more spare time for himself.
So far unsuccessfully.
