Superhero: Everyone Needs a Hero

by Don M. Winn, Dave Allred (Illustrator)

Overview

Superhero is the story of a young boy with big dreams and a mask and cape. He dreams every night that he is an amazing hero. He can conquer any villain and the whole city relies on him for help. But when he meets up with two nightmarish foes, he knows that even a superhero needs to have someone he can call on for help. This story is about how a dad can be the real hero to his son. It also helps open discussions about how a person doesn't need superpowers to be a hero, but shows that anyone can be a hero simply by helping others.
