Bookroo's summary
Meet the Sunshine Squad, a group of young superheroes with unique talents. Oliver draws comics, Mia excels in sports, Lilly invents, Lucas jokes, and Sophie loves animals. But Tommy, the tagalong brother, feels out of place. As he helps neighbors on 123 Sunshine Street, Tommy learns that caring for others might be the greatest superpower of all. Can he find his place in the squad and embrace his true strength? Join Tommy on a heartwarming journey of friendship and self-discovery, where kindness shines as the ultimate hero's trait.
From the publisher
Chicken Soup for the Soul Kids imparts good values through heartwarming and humourous stories to help kids put their best foot forward. They call themselves the Sunshine Squad: five friends (and one tagalong little brother) who decide to be superheroes. They have courage, capes, and even a secret clubhouse. They all have their own kind of superpower too. Oliver is a genius at drawing comics. Mia is a star athlete. Lilly creates amazing inventions. Lucas is a master of practical jokes. Sophie is an animal expert. And Tommy, well, he’s still figuring out what his strength is. Maybe he doesn’t belong in the squad at all. But throughout the day, Tommy helps his 123 Sunshine Street neighbors in different ways. And he learns that caring about others might be the best superpower of all.
