(4) K-3 DC Super Heroes: Science Behind Superman series. This book explains the differences between Superman's powers of flight and real airborne inventions and wildlife. Basic science and engineering vocabulary elucidates the principles that allow airplanes, helicopters, and animals to take flight. Additional fact sidebars accompany the main text. Generic drawings of Superman characters often feel unnecessary beside the more relevant diagrams and photos of inventions and animals. Reading list. Glos., ind.
