Carmela LaVigna Coyle, author of the popular Do Princesses book
series, is super pleased about her latest book for boys and girls
alike. Her son Nick, with his fearless plush shark, Swimmy, was
always creating something adventurous out of cardboard. She
recalls, "And off we'd go, saving the world inside Nick's 'hi-tech'
spaceships and submarines." Now, she's hoping children everywhere
will discover that being a super hero may not be all that
far-reaching after all. She lives in Denver, Colorado. Visit her

Mike Gordon’s award-winning illustrations span fiction,
non-fiction, entertainment, and educational books worldwide. He
lives in Santa Barbara, California.
...[A] good character-building book to help children begin the
process of discerning right from wrong; good from bad; strength
from weakness.

Gordon’s gently goofy cartoons are always fun, portraying an
idyllic existence that includes lots of outdoor adventures, an
impressive array of pretend play props, an improbably expressive
teddy bear, and a pet dog with superhero aspirations of his
own.

From making blanket capes to cardboard spaceships, this book is a
nostalgic romp through a child’s imagination. Funny and charming,
with a great message about being an everyday hero, it will surely
win the hearts of youngsters and their adult counterparts. Bright,
interesting, and comical illustrations with whimsical touches
highlight the text well.
*School Library Journal*
Coyle's rhyming couplets keep the question-and-answer narrative
rhythm rolling, and Gordon's cute cartoon-style kids keep up the
appeal with lots of visual KAPOW!

Little boys and girls that are gobbling up my Batman and Spider-Man
(yes, girls read comic books, too) will love this title, and I
think their parents will find a warm, comfortable book to share
with their children. I have a feeling this title will fly off the
shelf.
