This book is about
Two boys, Leo and Matt, were dressed in shark costumes and were advertising Leo's Dad's restaurant. They wished the costumes were superhero ones instead. They played a trick on some girls. The girls chased them and they all ended up at a mall. Then Leo and Matt upset another girl from their school and she chased them too. They got out of the mall and on the way home they saw a puppy drowning. They jumped in and saved it. They turned out to be superheroes in the end even if they were wearing silly costumes!

The main characters are
Matt and Leo.

My favourite part of the book is
I liked it when they saved Pirate the puppy, but I didn't like it that he fell in the water and almost drowned. I also liked it when they were in the ball pit with the toddlers at the mall and when the toddlers used them as bouncy castles!

I would also like to say
This is a good book and it has lots of action. There are funny bits and the sad bits aren't sad in the end. I would recommend it to my friends.
