The Astonishing Secret of Awesome Man by Michael Chabon
Awesome Man can shoot positronic rays out of his eyeballs, fly as straight as an arrow, and hug mutant Jell-O! Even villains like Professor Von Evil and the Flaming Eyeball are no match for this caped crusader.
But Awesome Man also has a secret. . . . Can you guess what it is?
The first picture book from Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist Michael Chabon perfectly captures the fantasy life of young superhero fans.
A great gift for the superhero obsessed, this book also models for kidsĀ a fun way to deal with their emotions--by being positronic!
