Die Nachtbushelden
Ich heiße Hector - meine Eltern haben eine Schwäche für griechische Helden. Aber ich glaube, dass sie es bereuen, mir diesen Namen gegeben zu haben. Sie hätten mich lieber 'Katastrophe' oder 'Hoffnungsloser Fall' nennen sollen. Eigentlich habe ich mich damit abgefunden, dass ich immer nur Ärger bekomme. Aber seit ich dem Mann, der im Park wohnt, einen Streich gespielt habe, ignorieren mich alle nur noch. Dabei habe ich sogar versucht, es wiedergutzumachen! Noch nicht mal jetzt, wo ich einem Komplott gegen die Obdachlosen der Stadt auf die Schliche gekommen bin, hört mir jemand zu! Alle denken, dass ich nur ein Mobber bin. Aber ich werde ihnen beweisen, dass auch ich ein Held sein kann!

The Night Bus Hero
What does it take to turn a bully into a hero? Empathy and the power of forgiveness take center stage in this poignant novel by the award-winning author of The Boy at the Back of the Class. Getting in trouble is what Hector does best. He knows that not much is expected of him. In fact, he gets some of his most brilliant prank ideas while sitting in detention. But how far is too far? When Hector plays a prank on a homeless man and is seen and shamed by a schoolmate, he reaches a turning point. He wants to be viewed differently and decides to do something that will change his fate for the better. But will anyone take him seriously? This moving story told with humor and heart presents readers with some recognizable characters, like a bully and a teacher's pet, and introduces them to some they may not be so familiar with-- like those who are homeless, who live on the street, and whose stories are equally meaningful and important. Readers will feel motivated to see the best in others and hopeful that bad things can be overcome with effort.<BR>
