Reading: EVEN SUPERHEROES MAKE MISTAKES - Shelly Becker (author), Eda Kaban (illustrator)

Prose (Story): Even superheroes aren't perfect - especially young ones still learning how to thwart nefarious schemes, catch villains, or help their fellow good guys. This follow-up to Even Superheroes Have Bad Days takes a colorful assortment of cape-wearers and do-gooders through their paces when they - well - mess up on the job.

Don's (Review): Kids will love this funny and colorful book for young readers, illustrated with zany frenetic energy by artist Eda Kaban, depicting laughing villains and hapless (and helpless) police and citizens, who look on as an equally zany group of superheroes - even with their hearts in the right place - botch up in their quests to restore order and save the day. Thing is, when you're a superhero and held to that kind of high esteem by the populace ... what do you do when you mess up? Hide? Make excuses? Go skulk off somewhere to lick your wounds, maybe reconsidering your career choice? That's where the real magic of this book comes in  - when even superheroes understand they are only human (even when they're not), and that when you mess up maybe the only solution is to admit your mistake and move on. Talk about a great lesson for a superhero to teach a kid.  4/5 stars
