(3) 1-3 Gum Girl! series. Gabby Gomez loves to chew gum. Despite her mother's warning, she chews until she is literally transformed into sticky superhero Gum Girl. She uses her superpowers to stop a robbery, rescue a kitten, and prevent an airplane crash, all while maintaining her secret identity. The action-packed story and comic book–style illustrations are perfect for readers with an appetite for ludicrous superhero fare.
