Reach for this book when your daughter is struggling with her own 'superpowers', whether that is a unique talent she is shy about or a personality trait that makes her feel out of place at school. It is an ideal choice for the child who needs to see that even the most powerful heroes have to deal with homework, social cliques, and the awkwardness of growing up. This series reimagines iconic DC characters like Wonder Woman, Supergirl, and Batgirl as relatable high school students. While the plot involves saving the day from various villains, the heart of the book lies in how these girls navigate friendship and self-discovery. Parents will appreciate the way it frames 'being different' as a source of strength rather than a burden. It is a light, empowering read for the 7 to 11 age group that turns the high school experience into a relatable adventure.
