This book is hilarious. I chose it as our first read aloud this year. It's a quick read and rea lly grabbed everyone's attention. The illustrations are hilarious.
The author is from Australia and apparently he is an actor and comedian. I'm not surprised!
The end has a big cliff hanger that makes you HAVE to read book 2!
Goodreads says:
Nelson wakes up on his birthday to discover that he has gained ninja powers overnight! This funny, heavily-illustrated series from Anh Do is action packed, with an appealingly grounded heart.
Nelson's a nerd. Unfit, uncool . . . totally awkward! But when he wakes up on his tenth birthday, he discovers he's a NINJA!
THE LAST NINJA ON EARTH!
How's he going to SAVE THE WORLD when he can't even get his undies on the right way?
