Bookroo's summary

Pizazz is a superhero who finds her powers more of a burden than a blessing. Between saving the world in a glittery cape and dealing with wedgies, she just wants to be a normal kid. Now, at a new school, she's been made 'eco monitor,' adding to her list of challenges. Can Pizazz balance her superhero duties with the desire for a regular life, or will her powers always get in the way? Dive into her hilarious adventures and discover the not-so-glamorous side of being a hero.

From the publisher

Discover the annoying side of being a superhero from snarky, reluctant hero Pizazz in this hilarious and highly illustrated new series for young middle graders–perfect for fans of Dog Man and Diary of a Wimpy Kid. Most people think superhero work is awesome and fulfilling. Pizazz knows better. Whenever she’s in the middle of a movie or having fun with her friends, she has to dash off the save the world. And she’s always in the same outfit, including an embarrassing glittery cape, and the wedgies are unreal. Plus, being the good guy all the time is so not easy. Superheroes have bad days like everybody else, but Pizazz always has to be cheerful and noble and brave. More than anything, she just wants to be normal.
