*4.5 stars*

I've just read all the Girl Wonder & the Terrific Twins books with my five-year-old son, and this was our joint favorite. Fun, funny and fun! He laughed and laughed as we read it together, and then he wanted to re-enact all the stories.

If you're looking for a great chapter book series with PoC characters, this is a perfect one to check out.
