Power Up! The Pixel Portal

STEP INTO A WORLD WHERE VIDEO GAMES ARE REAL! Power Up is a thrilling new series of illustrated chapter books packed with action and humor. When ten-year-old Max Power finds a pixelated, glowing key in his grandad's garage, he has no idea what it can be ... but he can't help but reach out and touch it. And just like that, he's catapulted into the adventure of a lifetime! Max finds himself in a strange world - a patchwork realm called Arcadia. This wonderful place is inhabited by strange creatures called sprites. What's the connection between this fantastic realm and the video games Max has played in the real world? And what big secret has his grandad been keeping all these years? Max won't be able to linger over mysteries too long - because Arcadia is under threat. A monster called the Glitch is trying to capture glowing power-ups like the one that Max found. Each key gives its user a different ability - and if the Glitch can collect them all, it will soon have ULTIMATE POWER. An epic adventure for readers aged 7+.
