    About this ebook

    Snarky, reluctant caped crusader Pizazz butts heads with another superhero kid in this hilarious and highly illustrated new novel—perfect for fans of Dog Man and Diary of a Wimpy Kid.

    There’s a new kid at Pizazz’s school…a new super kid. A super competitive, super skilled, super popular superhero. At first, Pizazz hopes Jett being in her class will mean the Populars will have someone new to pick on. But instead of becoming a target of ridicule like Pizazz, Jett becomes the coolest kid in school. Talk about unfair.

    Jett seems to be good at everything, both normal and super, and he takes every opportunity to show Pizazz how it’s done. Soon Pizazz starts to wonder…if Jett can be super and cool, why can’t she? All she has to do is prove who’s really the most super around here.

    Jett and Pizazz’s competition brings her nothing but scrapes and humiliation. Then, Pizazz’s worst nightmare comes true. She and Jett are going to have to work together to save the world. But, of course, no matter how they feel about each other, at the end of the day they’re superheroes and will do their job without a problem…right?

      Pizazz vs. the New Kid - Sophy Henn

      Cover: Pizazz vs. the New Kid, by Sophy Henn, illustrated by Sophy Henn

      Pizazz vs. the New Kid

      Pizazz vs. the New Kid, by Sophy Henn, illustrated by Sophy Henn, AladdinChapter 1: The bit where I tell you the story so far…

      SO…

      Well, I am still 9 ¼, very nearly 9 ½, and I am still a SUPERHERO, and unfortunately my name is still PIZAZZ. Apparently I am absolutely NOT allowed to change it.

      You probably think being a SUPERHERO is pretty cool, but when your whole family are SUPERHEROES, it doesn’t feel very cool. I mean, my mum and dad are about the furthest from cool you can get, and Grandma and Gramps are lovely, but cool? I don’t think so.

      RED DRAGON AKA the Most Annoying Little Sister EVER, who only gets high grades and is the head of the student council and volunteers to teach the little kids to read and makes perfect cakes and is basically good at EVERYTHING… BUT I can burp the alphabet. So who is the real winner here?

      Yep.… It’s her.

      If that wasn’t bad enough, I get bossed about by our pet dog. Meet WANDA.

      She came to us from Mission Control. Basically she receives messages about top secret SUPERHERO missions, then she bosses us off to deal with them.

      SUPERpowers are cool, unless you are me and have the MOST embarrassing SUPERpower in the whole universe.

      Then I am always having to dash off to save the planet. And always at the WORST possible moment. UGH.

      AND guess what? I have to wear a stupid SUPERHERO costume the whole time.

      So now you know. Being a SUPERHERO isn’t as good as you probably think it is. And I am stuck with it FOREVER…

      … SUPER.

      Chapter 2: The bit about the new kid

      Even though I am a SUPERHERO, who saves the world more often than she is allowed ice cream, I still have to go to school. And not some sort of awesome space academy superhero school with hoverboards and neon lighting and teachers with LASER EYES. I have to go to normal school, with normal kids who have normal names and normal clothes. So I blend in perfectly.

      Well, not everyone is completely normal. I mean, there is Susan Briggs, and she can dislocate her thumbs just like that. And then there’s Freddie Hayes, who can eat fifteen strawberry yogurts in a single lunchtime, and
