book review

Superfab is a superhero bunny with a style fixation. By the time he's decided what costume to wear, the villains have either gotten away or been stopped by some other hero. So Superfab sinks to the C-list of superheroes. Then, one day, he gets a chance to redeem himself. I won't give away the ending, but it has a lot to do with a fabulously awesome pair of gloves. It should come to no one's surprise that this book was first written and published in France. Phoenix loved it, giggled the whole way through. When I asked him what he thought it meant, Phoenix gave me this look as he realized, for the very first time, that even grown-ups can miss the incredibly obvious. "It doesn't mean anything. It's just funny," he said. So maybe Superfab Saves the Day taught Phoenix something vitally important after all.
