This book is short and sweet. My daughter asked me to write a story where she was a superhero. In this book, our superhero Kyla has to save her sister from the terrifying jaws of a Tyrannosaurus Rex! Teagan is a scientist and travels back in time but forgets how dangerous dinosaurs are and needs the help of her superhero sister to save her from this incident.

When Max grows up he doesn't want to be an astronaut or a hockey player-he wants to be a superhero, to help sick and poor people like his idol, the Flying Avenger. But no one, especially grown ups, takes superheroes seriously. When Max's father loses his job, however, he learns what it is to be poor first-hand. He also learns that even the least super people have their heroic moments. Max the Superhero is an emotional story about a boy whose life turns upside-down, and who grows as a result.

Life with his mother has been hand-to-mouth but not catastrophic. He has a modest, passive support system: his best friend and some kindly acquaintances. When he and his mother are evicted, she assumes he's staying with his friend. Heck, confident of his own ability to get by and wanting to protect his mother from criticism, decides not to ask for help. For the next few days he brushes up against a harsher reality than he anticipated. He's hungry, broke, homeless and plagued by a toothache. Heck has a series of encounters involving varying degrees of callousness, harshness, and risk. He sustains himself (and the reader) with his wit, imagination and optimism. As Heck faces the challenges of growing up on the streets - including drugs, pain, hunger, theft and homelessness - he must come to terms with his choices, his perceptions of himself, and his perceptions of others. Heck Superhero is award-winning author Martine Leavitt's second foray into the world of today's urban teenager. Heck is as real as Martine's other troubled teenager, Tom Finder (Red Deer Press, 2003). And, like Tom Finder, Heck must find the inner strength to face the truth.
