Book Review : Muppit Boy and the Wheel of Power

Book Review : Muppit Boy and the Wheel of Power 



I had a lot of fun with Muppit Boy and the Wheel of Power. The book jumps straight into superhero territory, but Mo is definitely not your typical perfect superhero. He is still awkward, still worried about his oversized nose, still trying to figure out what to tell his friends, and still capable of getting himself into some seriously complicated situations. I liked that contrast because it keeps the story light and entertaining while giving Mo plenty of personality.

The action is one of the strongest parts of the book. The Ferris wheel sequence is especially exciting, with Mo and Charlie working together to rescue people while the situation keeps becoming more dangerous. There is also plenty of humor sprinkled throughout Mo's narration, which makes even tense moments feel approachable.

Another thing that stood out to me was the development of Mason Rizzo. I wasn't expecting the school bully to become such an important part of Mo's superhero journey. 

The book ultimately shows that being a hero isn't only about flying, lifting impossible amounts of weight, or defeating villains. Sometimes it is about giving someone a second chance, trusting them, and recognizing the person underneath their reputation.
