He spoke with Morning Edition's A Martinez about Morales' other teenage superpowers and obsessions: writing poetry, and exploring his feelings about family, teachers, and a girl he likes. It grapples with huge themes though: censorship in schools, racism and fear. Reynolds' book is directed toward a wide audience - part poetry, part prose, with illustrations throughout. But with his superhero powers, he's invincible. Morales goes to a fancy private school in Brooklyn, New York, where he doesn't always feel acknowledged. ![]() In the sequel, Miles Morales - the half-Black, half-Puerto Rican teenage Spiderman - finds himself in school suspension for disagreeing with his history teacher. This one is called Miles Morales Suspended, and it continues the adventures of an "unassuming, everyday kid who just so happens to be Spider-Man." Award-winning author Jason Reynolds returns with a sequel to his young adult novel Miles Morales: Spider-Man. ![]()

Jude Watson’s Loot: How to Steal a Fortune is on the crest of the aforementioned wave. It fascinates me to see authors like Gordon Korman, Stuart Gibbs, Eoin Colfer and Kate Messner craft an at least plausibly believable plotline with kids acting like James Bond, Kinsey Millhone or John Dortmunder.
