Discovering Your SUPERPOWERS
BY JUDY WILKINS-SMITH
Who doesn ’ t love superheroes ? Who hasn ’ t secretly dreamed of being able to fly or become invisible or walk through walls ? And how about hanging out with the Avengers ? The Hulk , Thor , Iron Man , Spider- Man and the Black Widow . That would be beyond cool , wouldn ’ t it ?

Standing up for justice and righting wrongs wherever they ’ re found ?
