Bob is an extremely
normal fifth grader, with an extremely normal life,
until one day when he finds an extremely abnormal
hot dog in his lunch. He has an annoying little
brother, a slobbery old basset hound, and two
parents who have absolutely no idea that their son
is risking his life to save the world on a fairly
regular basis. Bob is what you might call a
reluctant hero. "It wasn't my idea to become a
superhero weenie's Earth partner." He explains. "The
job just kind of got chosen for me."

Flat Stanley by Jeff Brown.
Stanley Lambchop is
flattened when a bulletin board falls on him. He
survives and makes the best of his altered state,
and soon he is sliding into rooms through the

Stanley even helps catch some art sneak thieves by
posing as a painting on the wall! But one special
advantage is that Flat Stanley can now visit his
friends by being mailed in an envelope.
