Rude Health

Ian Rude’s whole life is an embarrassment.

With a name like that, what can you expect. He’s short. He’s skinny. His parents run a health food shop. Things couldn’t get much worse – could they?

Then Ian discovers that he secret superhuman powers – and they land him in BIG trouble.

Like, with the Maths Teacher from Hell. Is he cursed? Is he a genuine superkid? Or are the Teenage Energy Pills (with odourless garlic) that his mum gives him stronger than she realizes?
