Synopsis
Walter Kettle is just an ordinary boy until he is bitten on the bottom by a radioactive squirrel. From that moment, whenever he eats a nut, Walter Kettle becomes... Squirrel Boy! But Walter isn't the only person impacted by nuclear activity: on the other side of town Jeremy Winkleman-Grubb is picking his nose...
With the help of his ferocious elderly neighbour, Mrs Onions, Walter finds himself fighting crime and the hilarious new series for 6 -10s about an unlikely and totally ridiculous superhero.
There's an explosion at the town's nuclear power plant. A week later, after eating his mum's nut roast, Walter realises something very strange is happening to him. Meanwhile, on the other side of town, Jeremy Winkle-Mann Grub is picking his nose. When he inserts a finger into his nostril, he accidentally inserts a bug (a bug that has recently been living in the armpit of an aforementioned radioactive squirrel), and Jeremy becomes the Bogeyman. When the Bogeyman embarks on a series of thefts, Walter is the only one who can stop him. Following a strict training regime, orchestrated by Mrs Onions, Squirrel Boy is ready to save the town.
Illustrated in comics style panels by Cate James.

Review
Squirrel Boy vs the Bogeyman by Dave Lowe follows in the comic footsteps of awesome authors like Roald Dahl and David Walliams to conjure up a new breed of superhero. He might not be able to fly, he doesn't have a cape, and his outfit leaves a lot to be desired but Walter Kettle AKA Squirrel Boy is our last best hope against the most nefarious menace known to mankind. Bogeymen!
Track down a copy of Squirrel Boy vs the Bogeyman from Phoenix Yard Books and watch out for more from this series very soon!
--Read It Daddy
The story is accessible to reluctant or less able readers in both content and presentation. Fantastical and slapstick, it is boisterously funny, revelling in all things snot-related while also poking gentle fun at vegetarianism. The ending is clever, the ruse that brings down the Bogeyman thematically appropriate. The characters loom large, invoking emotions of sympathy for wimpy kid-turned-hero, Walter, admiration for the age-defying old lady and repulsion for the slimy villain.
