Do you or your kids love superheroes and want to know how their super powers work? If so, this is the perfect book for you.
The authors select some of the most popular and current superheroes and compare their powers to phenomenons that naturally occur in our world! Sometimes, it's a comparison to an animal trait, other times, it a new technological discovery!
This is the perfect way to integrate science with fiction and to help give a real-world example to students of how some of these superheroes already exist.
