Written By Ben Wendel
As a West Australian father to 7 children, Ben has read his fair-share of bedtime stories. With a super-hero obsessed 4 year old, Ben noticed that there were no decent super-hero children’s books available, only comic books, which are difficult and distracting to read to a small child.
The few superhero children’s books he did find had boring heroes and the books were so focused on trying to push a ‘believe-in-yourself’ lesson that the book itself was boring for both himself and his son.
So he went about writing a book he wished he could find for his son. He wanted to create an entertaining story that both kids and adults could enjoy. It had to have memorable heroes that kids would want to be. That means cool costumes with awesome powers!
Illustrated By Elise Baron
The art in this book is not the typical boring ‘kids book’ illustrations. Ben partnered with the amazing Elise Baron because of her unique style that brings the heroes to life in a way that captivates children’s imaginations while leaving adults satisfied with her beautiful work.
