The Incredible Rockhead and the Spectacular Scissorlegz

A parent might reach for this book when their child needs a fun, fast, and visually engaging story that builds reading confidence without being overwhelming. Perfect for reluctant readers or fans of superhero cartoons, this graphic novel introduces two goofy heroes: the brawny Rockhead and the agile Scissorlegz. They don't get along at first, but must learn to combine their very different skills to defeat the evil Dr. Dactyl and his army of robot pterodactyls. It's a lighthearted, action-packed story that serves as a fantastic introduction to the graphic novel format, subtly modeling teamwork, bravery, and the idea that our differences can be our greatest strengths.
