You'd think eleven-year old rich kid, Marcus Fleming, has it made, but he doesn't. He often feels like a disappointment, struggling to live up to his dad's high standards. One day, Marcus holds open a door for a very sickly-looking man. The thanks he gets is a sneeze that covers him in thick green slime. Marcus soon discovers that this slime has given him the ability to shoot radioactive mucus out of his mouth and nose. After fine tuning his abilities, he dubs himself the super hero, Mucus Phlegmball, but is determined to keep his powers a secret. When mutant squirrels threaten the town, Marcus feels compelled to step up, but worries he can't handle it alone. He reveals his secret to his best friend, Chunk, and to Dr B., the sickly scientist who sneezed on him, and they agree to work together. Through radioactive snot-filled time traveling adventures, Marcus is continually challenged and faces many of his fears. Can this insecure young man summon the courage to handle the responsibility of being a super hero?
Autorenporträt
Kerry Crowley fell in love with writing in 7 th grade, but believed the only way to make a living as a writer was in journalism. She worked as a reporter for a time, but soon realized that wasn't a good fit. She switched careers and didn't pursue her dream until a random conversation with her family led her to a character name she couldn't resist. Mucus Phlegmball was born and from there, her children helped her weave a gross, action-packed story that she hopes will appeal to young boys everywhere. She lives in Genesee, Wisconsin with her husband, younger son, dog and two cats. She is a member of AllWriters' Workplace and Workshop (www.allwritersworkshop.com) and of the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators. Snoogers Rule, Mammoth's Drool: Introducing the Amazing Mucus Phlegmball is her first middle grade novel.
