"Chip Stone is just like any other kid attempting to navigate his way safely through junior high. He enjoys hanging out with his best friend, Spencer, while trying to catch the eye of popular Jennifer Jones and avoiding the ire of local bully Troy Perkins. All of this changes, however, when Chip suddenly discovers that when he gets upset, he becomes the Incredible Rockhead. As Chip tries to figure out his newfound ability to smash through walls, an emergency arises during a field trip to the city zoo. The animals have escaped and are endangering the students, including Chip’s crush, Jennifer! Does the Incredible Rockhead have what it takes to save the day and capture Jennifer’s heart? Maybe he can with the help of his trusty sidekick, Scissorlegz! This cute, quick, gentle read would appeal to young readers who are not quite ready for the excesses of big-time superhero comics. In terms of dialogue, humor, and atmosphere, this title would appeal to fans of cartoon series such as the PowerPuff Girls." - Booklist

"Review in 75 Words or Less: The Incredible Rockhead is a humorous play off of traditional nerd boys turning into superheroes. Instead of becoming super strong, be able to fly, and do other cool things, Chip's head turns into a rock. In this adventure, he is at the zoo when some animals get out of their cages. He is able to knock the animals out with his head and save the popular girls. Final Verdict: Definitely a fun adventure for those students that can relate to being the odd man out, or just a bit nerdier than everyone else. Still has that comic book hero side to it, while combining more elements of life as we know it. I'd say kids aged 8-12 would get a kick out of this one. http://www.bookworminginthe21stcentury.com/2010/02/book-views-1.html" - Bookworming in the 21st Century

"The art is colourful, the story is action-based, and the writing is funny. If you've ever dreamed of what Rock, Paper, Scissors would be like in a real-life supervillian-fuled version, this is definitely the book for you. I received a copy from NetGalley courtesy of Capstone Young Readers." - Crowding the Book Truck blog
