Super-Marvin

Reach for this book when your child feels overlooked at school or is struggling with the weight of new expectations. It is perfect for children who daydream about being extraordinary but feel tethered by the mundane reality of being a kid. Super-Marvin follows a young boy who suddenly gains incredible powers, only to realize that being a hero involves much more than cool abilities: it requires difficult choices and a strong moral compass. At its heart, the story explores the intersection of self-confidence and personal responsibility. It is ideal for the 8 to 12 age range because it mirrors the middle-school transition where children gain more autonomy and must learn to manage it wisely. Parents will appreciate how it moves beyond the typical action-hero trope to focus on the character growth and resilience needed to handle power with grace.
