While other kids are recruited to superhero teams, Marshall's stuck in seventh grade with a kid who can run at super speed but can't turn a corner, another with a radioactive peanut allergy that turns him into a swollen Hulk, and a telepath who reads everyone's thoughts out loud. <p/> Defectives like Marshall aren't exactly superhero material, but when he uncovers a plot to destroy one of the greatest superhero teams of all time, Marshall and his less-than-super friends set out to prove that just because you're defective doesn't mean you can't save the day. <p/>With full illustrations throughout and a funny, heartwarming story, <i>Superfail</i> is the perfect book for reluctant young readers and the superhero fan.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Brunner has delivered a story full of quirkiness and self-deprecating humor, and...
