(4) 4-6 Eleven-year-old orphan Joe gazes longingly out of his sealed hospital room in London and daydreams about superheroes; his only company is hospital staff, his sister, and (via Skype) an American friend with the same autoimmune disease. Then an unlikely ally, nurse Amir, offers Joe a thrilling and terrifying opportunity to go outside. However unrealistic the plot, readers will cheer as Joe faces his fears and makes an unforgettable connection.
