Charlie Boy might be just an ordinary kid, but he's about to get into some EXTRA-ordinary trouble ...

Get ready for this funny, fast-paced, friendship adventure with lots of kick.

Meet Charlie Boy: skinny, small, looks like a strand of spaghetti. He and his best friend, Rocky the Lower Hutt Chief, are good at getting into trouble together.

But when Charlie and Rocky get into a bit too much trouble, Charlie is sent to live with his dad in THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE, and there's not much to do in a small town ... unless your dad happens to be a retired MMA fighter.

As Charlie learns the ins and outs of mixed-martial arts, he sees an opportunity to redeem himself - a martial arts tournament one that will declare the best fighter and the best fighting style, AND it has a prize of ONE MILLION DOLLARS.

Only it's not easy to make a comeback, and there's more to MMA than the fight. Charlie is about to find out just how far he's willing to go to get to the top.

Bestselling author Airana Ngarewa's children's debut is full of action, friendship, and well-placed punches, with accompanying illustrations by Story Hemi-Morehouse.
