About This Book
Reach for this book when your child feels overshadowed by the 'super' talents of their friends or siblings. While Peter Powers comes from a family of elite superheroes, his own power is small and easily dismissed: he can create tiny ice cubes. When his father goes missing and Boulder City is threatened by a wintry villain, Peter must realize that even a modest gift, when paired with quick thinking and loyal friends, can save the day. It is a perfect choice for kids navigating the pressure of high expectations. This fast-paced chapter book is ideal for ages 6 to 10, blending superhero action with relatable childhood insecurities. It normalizes the feeling of not being 'enough' while celebrating teamwork and creative problem-solving. Parents will appreciate how the story uses a fantastical setting to explore real-world emotional growth, making it an excellent bridge for reluctant readers who enjoy humor and adventure.
