If Hercules Braver is going to survive his new secondary school, he
has to live up to his name, fast. He needs to become strong and
tanned and popular, like a Greek hero. Not weak and pale and
unpopular, like a Greek yoghurt. But his bid for popularity ends up
saddling him with a set of impossible tasks... like cleaning out
the monster-riddled school pond, facing up to the school bully and
finding the headmaster's cat. Then Herc's charming, impressive
birth dad turns up after years living in Greece, and Hercules
thinks his problems are solved. With God-like strength and
awe-inspiring powers, could his dad even be ... the real Zeus?! And
will Hercules learn what it truly means to be a hero? A hilarious,
accessible package brilliantly illustrated by David O'Connell.
Ideal for fans of Louie Stowell's Loki, Maz Evans, Marvel's Thor
films and Disney's Hercules. Hercules Braver's 'trials' are loosely
based on the first three Labours of Hercules, ideal for all young
fans of Greek mythology! Warm-hearted representation of blended
families and alternate father figures.
