Bookroo's summary

Josh, a nervous boy, faces bullies at school and the skate park. Armed with a helmet, sword, and his loyal terrier Wolverine, he discovers courage through a vivid imagination. When ancient Viking gods join his quest, Josh's world transforms. Can he conquer his fears and stand up to the bullies? Explore the bond between a boy and his grandfather in this tale of bravery and imagination.

From the publisher

A victorious story about a boy with a wild imagination, this humorous and pertinent narrative not only addresses the serious issue of bullying, but also highlights a moving relationship between grandfather and grandson. Josh is a nervous kid, and he is especially nervous about the kids who bother him at school and in the skate park. With his helmet and sword, and joined by his trusty Scottish terrier Wolverine, Josh finds new strength when the ancient Viking gods unite with him to thwart the neighborhood bullies.
