Description


“A highly appealing read. . . . Children will readily gravitate to this book.” School Library Journal

What do young superheroes do when they’ve blundered and bungled?
They don’t get mad; they get SMART!

This fun follow-up to Even Superheroes Have Bad Days teaches kids another humorous lesson in overcoming adversity.

 
Even superheroes sometimes slip up and err. And when that happens, do they say, “It’s not FAIR?” or give up in despair? NO! “Ashamed Superheroes who goofed up somehow . . . First STOP . . . then CONSIDER what’s best to do now.”  Whether they’ve nabbed the wrong guy by mistake or bashed into a planet while zooming through space, all superheroes ‘fess up their mess-up, get on with their day, and keep on saving the world in the most super way!
Shelly Becker Eda Kaban
