Trade Review
"A solid debut: fluent, funny and eminently sequel-worthy." -- Kirkus Reviews "Packed with action and humor, this is a superhero tale in the spirit of The Incredibles. Jensen's wit and light tone give the story a playful quality while still managing to incorporate suspense. Family dynamics and teamwork drive a plot that has, above all, a super amount of heart." -- Booklist "Jensen employs a clever tongue-in-cheek humor throughout. The short chapters and action packed sequences keep the pages turning. Reluctant readers and fans of the Pixar movie The Incredibles will be excited to find out what happens in the sequel." -- School Library Journal
