A tale to delight readers of all ages- a fast-paced, action-packed, humorous adventure where a new sort of superhero is unleashed. Francis was bullied at school, so his grandmother designed a special suit to help him, with features similar to Batman, Superman, Spiderman, and a bouncy trampoline. One of the suit's main functions allows Francis to throw slightly addictive sponges into the faces of the bad guys. Hence the name Sponge Cake Man. There are lots of bad guys in the school and the city:The Sludge Creek Gang which terrorizes school pupils. The Cockroach - a mafia-type gang lord and his thugs. The deadly and mysterious Grabbers -ghostlike creatures that flit in and out of the story. The sinister Aliens who are intent on world domination. A corrupt police force and their riot breaker Godzilla. And many more... Lots of humour - the suit doesn't always function as expected. Memorable characters will become unforgettable: The bumbling constable Arbuckle Gabriella Nightingale who tries to brighten up the drab city. The ladies from the rest home and their mobile scooters And many more... In the end, Sponge Cake Man realizes that true heroism comes from the support of family and friends. And that courage and determination to stand up to bullies can be achieved one sponge cake at a time. Discussion questions to aid critical thinking, suggested imagination booster activities, and a delicious sponge cake recipe included.

Autorenporträt
Mr Heff is the name I am most known by. That, or just Heff Short & friendly. When I was a school principal and art teacher the students always called me that name rather than Mr Heffernan.From my studio on the water's edge on the Firth of Thames, New Zealand I write and illustrate my children's stories. Picture and chapter books.They have been lying in a box for oodles of years, neglected while I was a school principal, dad, holiday camp, and restaurant owner.Just recently Kathy my wife and good friend Bruce said, "Come on Heff, for goodness' sake publish those stories before you shuffle off the planet. You are running out of time." So, I opened the box, and out flew about a zillion moths. The stories were still there singing songs and having barbeques.Hope you enjoy my stories as they have a unique whimsical wackiness about them and lots of Heff Humour - hopefully causing readers to smile and have a wee chuckle or two.
