The Super Life of Ben Braver by Marcus EmersonMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
This is one of those books that I picked up at a Scholastic warehouse sale because it looked interesting and the little blurb I read sounded good. Marcus Emerson did not disappoint. This is the first book of his that I have read, but I think I may have to fix that ASAP.
I liked how the illustrations actually helped more the story along. Some of the dialog happens in an illustration and not just in the paragraphs around it. It brought everything together for me. I stayed up reading this way past my bedtime, and I’m an adult. The story sucks you in, and even after finishing it, I have questions. It’s a good thing the second book is already out.
