Inner
city
middle
school
student
Kenny
Wright
imagines
himself
as
a
superhero-but
when
he
faces
peer
pressure
and
bullying,
can
he
find
his
strength
in
real
life?
Kenny
Wright
is
a
kid
with
a
secret
identity.
In
his
mind,
he's
Stainlezz
Steel,
super-powered
defender
of
the
weak.
In
reality,
he's
a
chess
club
devotee
known
as
a
"Grandma's
Boy,"
a
label
that
makes
him
an
easy
target
for
bullies.
Kenny
wants
to
bring
a
little
more
Steel
to
the
real
world,
but
the
question
is:
can
he
recognize
the
real
strength
and
goodness
inside
himself?
Or
will
peer
pressure
force
him
to
make
the
worst
choice
of
his
life?
Interspersed
with
fantastic
illustrations
and
comic-book
panels,
this
book
aims
to
both
entertain
and
to
provoke
dialogue
about
identity,
belonging,
and
doing
the
right
thing.

Recenzii
Praise
forPublic
School
Superhero:
"The authors never get too preachy for their own good.... Told with the humorous style characteristic of Patterson when he's in preteen mode, the novel fits right in with I Funny, Middle School, and the like. Adding to the book's charm [are] comic-filled pages that help further illustrate Kenny's inner workings as well as present just plain fun superhero stories. A smart and kind story topped with just the right amount of social justice."—Kirkus Reviews
"Packed with fast-paced tween-speak, Public School Superhero will entertain and enlighten.... Readers will also enjoy the multiple pages of funny, comic book-style illustrations packed with superhero stunts and preteen angst.... Definitely buy this one."—School Library Journal
"A novel aimed as much at parents as at their middle-school children.... With admirers of all ages, don't be surprised if everyone wants to get their hands on [Patterson's] latest."—Booklist
