Things are not going well at Starwood Elementary! A squirrel is running through the halls. A tree fell on the gym. The principal is acting weird! Can Freddie save the day with his Zapato Power?
The text allows young readers both to believe in Freddie’s astonishing powers and to see how they actually might be, well, not all that astonishing: maybe it just seems to Freddie that he can run faster than a train and ‘search the whole building in just two blinks.’ Short chapters and abundant cartoonish illustrations make this an appealing choice for reluctant readers who have their own superhero dreams.
The story is action-packed cartoons and superhero-worthy action words scrawled across the page, giving the book appeal to reluctant readers and children just getting into chapter books. Fans of the previous titles will appreciate this continuation.
