The Magnificents: the World's Longest Field Trip Barry Mcmahon

When Mr. Fiddle walked through the door on an otherwise ordinary day, the kids in the classroom were expecting the usual routine. They knew for certain that he, their substitute teacher, was about to deliver some canned speech they simply did not want to hear.

But, when all was said and done that day, for five very special students, something ordinary became extraordinary, and they emerged from Mr. Fiddle?s classroom empowered by lessons they never expected to learn.

Together, Tommy, Billy, Ralph, Josephine, and Agnes discover that they possess magical, superhuman powers, and they become a team of gifted heroes, who dub themselves ?the Magnificents.? With these amazing powers, however, comes amazing responsibility, and the group must learn to grasp, develop, and control their newfound powers?which is a mighty big feat for five eleven-year-olds to tackle, especially considering the incredible perils and continued threats of detection that await them in this thrilling and fun-filled sci-fi novel.

The first book in a forthcoming series, The World's Longest Field Trip follows this team of preteen heroes as they grow into their talents, strengths, and relationships; and confront unimaginable challenges in the arctic, where they?re tasked to save stranded wildlife, and unavoidably encounter the area?s most legendary, abominable creature.
