The Caped 6th Grader Lightning Strikes

Whoever said it's hard work being a superhero (maybe it was Grandpa) wasn't kiddin'. The world just won't stop needing to be saved. Is Zoe up to the challenge?

Mild-mannered Zoe Richards was just your average 6th grader, celebrating her 12th birthday, when an ear-piercing debacle convinced her grandfather to tell her the truth: she’s a superhero. And she’d better start training to use her superspeed and superstrength, because pretty soon she’s going to be called upon to save the world.

When Zoe Richards, 6th-grade superhero, gets the news that a local company is dumping toxic waste into the river, it’s time to direct those new superpowers into some toxic avenging. Can she stop the company from polluting her town, keep her superpowers secret, and still make it home in time for dinner? Stay tuned. . . .

In the fourth installment of this fun, girl-power series, Zoe Richards is spending her spring break at superhero camp, where she'll perfect her Super skills. As usual, though, things don't quite go as planned. Will Kid Zoom be called on to save the day—or will she be crowded out by 500 other superhero campers?
