Bart King

illustrated by Greg Paprocki


As a child, Bart King discovered he could punch people into outer space. Sadly, he lost a lot of friends that way. Today, Bart is one of the world's most in-demand superhero experts. So if you're wondering if you have what it takes to be a superhero - of course you do! All you need is a burning desire to fight evildoers. Oh, and also a secret identity, the perfect name, a cool costume, some terrific superpowers, and an archenemy. Actually, you know what? You better get this book!
Bart King writes funny books for kids and immature adults. His titles - including The Big Book of Boy Stuff and The Big Book of Girl Stuff - have sold more than a half million copies. A longtime middle-school teacher, Bart is currently wearing his underwear over his pants. (Don't ask.)

Bart King has written more than twenty-eight books, including The Big Book of Boy Stuff, The Big Book of Spy Stuff, and The Pocket Guide to Mischief . His books for Gibbs Smith have sold more than 830,000 copies combined. He lives in Portland, Oregon.
