Book Description
Angela Kirin calls Australia home, but has lived in many places through her life—England, Scotland, China, Central America, and throughout Australia. She developed a passion for writing for young adults during 2005 while teaching English to primary school children in a tiny Chinese town called ‘Liyang’. ‘The inspiration for Doctor Elbows, the superhero, came from the constant attention and adulation I received from the Chinese children,’ Angela says. ‘At times it was overwhelming that these children looked upon me as a hero for leaving my country to teach them.’ While living and working with people of different cultures, interests, and beliefs, Angela always nurtured a fascination for reading and creating stories. This multicultural harmony is one of the prime themes throughout this, her first book in her superhero series . . . along with a good measure of action, danger, and fun. Angela hopes to fill this series with comical and sometimes thought-provoking messages for the reader who imagines and seeks.
