About this product
Product Information
"Creators Kniivila (Year of the Dog) and Vuong (The Strange Tales of Oscar Zahn) present a funny, uncommonly charming mash-up of martial arts, superhero, and sci-fi comics. The rare all-ages title that will entertain, and perhaps even enthrall, adolescents and adults alike." --- Library Journal (Starred Review) When a machine boy falls to earth, his heart is awoken for the first time. As he learns to be human, he struggles to override his own programming and become a hero, from rising stars Tri Vuong and Irma Kniivila. It's a bird, it's a plane, it's... Machine Boy! When Machine Boy falls from the sky into the domed city of Mega 416, he leaves a wake of destruction in his path... until Karate Grandpa is able to turn on his heart. Now, Machine Boy wants nothing more than to become a hero! Whether he is fighting giant bugs in the school's basement, rescuing cats from trees, or making the perfect spaghetti sauce, Machine Boy is always looking for the best way to help others. But when his heart begins to interact dangerously with other debris from space, Machine Boy wonders if he can be a power for good after all. Rising stars Tri Vuong and Irma Kniivila create a funny and engaging all-ages adventure that asks-can you override your own programming? Included in Everyday Hero Machine Boy, is a two-page READER'S GUIDE. The full TEACHER'S GUIDE is available on SkyboundComet.com.

"Full of action, heart and a surprising amount of spaghetti--what more could you want?" ---GABRIELA EPSTEIN (The Baby-Sitters Club, Danny Phantom), "The anime-inspired blend of martial arts, sf dystopia, and cosmic fantasy is energized by high-octane action and character expression...Good, weird fun that middle-grade readers will adore." -- Booklist, "A boon for the misfits, screwballs, weirdos,outsiders, newcomers, and nonconformists. If you've ever felt like you don'tcheck the right boxes, like you don't belong, or like you aren't good enough-andwho hasn't?-Everyday Hero Machine Boy is for you." ---KELLY SUE DeCONNICK(Pretty Deadly, Captain Marvel), LIBRARY JOURNAL (STARRED) -- A powerful robot calledMachine Boy falls from the sky and proceeds to rampage across the domed city ofMega 416, destroying everything in his path. The city's inhabitants (a mix ofhumans and anthropomorphic animals) despair, until a retired karate instructorrushes to the rescue and, after defeating Machine Boy, manages to alter therobot's programming so his demeanor shifts to that of a sweet young boy. Thustransformed, Machine Boy is plagued by guilt for his destructive abilities andsets out to redeem himself through service to his new neighbors. Complicationsaccrue: Our hero adopts a tiny, adorable robot, only to discover it possesses aninsatiable appetite and no impulse control; he begins attending public schoolbut ends up battling hideous beasts in the sewers beneath the building; and heruns afoul of Orphan Universe, Mega 416's premier musical group/superpowereddefenders.VERDICT Creators Kniivila (Year of the Dog) and Vuong (The StrangeTales of Oscar Zahn) present a funny, uncommonly charming mash-up of martialarts, superhero, and sci-fi comics.
