The Adventures of Wrong Man and Power Girl!

32 pp. | Philomel | March, 2018 | Trade ISBN 978-0-399-54893-2 $17.99
(2) K-3 Illustrated by Frank Morrison. A (brown-skinned) girl is put in time-out. What follows is a humorous comic-book story about an inept superhero who looks suspiciously like the girl's father. Wrong Man has a knack for making any problem worse; luckily, his daughter, Power Girl, is there to resolve them. Morrison's comic-panel illustrations capture the drama of a superhero origin story but add silliness to this one, which ends happily--with time-out over.
