Superhero ABC
By Bob McLeod
The Story
Twenty-six comic-book superheroes take over the alphabet, one wild power at a time — from Bubble-Man popping bullies to Laughing Lass cracking up lawbreakers.
Why It's Special
For the kid who turns every cardboard tube into a cape and every letter into a launchpad, this book makes the ABCs feel like a comic book come to life.
- Big idea: Every letter deserves its own larger-than-life personality — learning can be as fun as invention.
- Vibes: Zany, punchy, comic-book bold.
Perfect For Kids Who
- enjoy superheroes and silly powers
- are working on letter recognition and the alphabet
- like to invent their own characters and powers
- respond well to bold, comic-style illustrations
