The Astonishing Secret of Awesome Man

Book Synopsis

Awesome Man can shoot positronic rays out of his eyeballs, fly as straight as an arrow, and hug mutant Jell-O! Even villains like Professor Von Evil and the Flaming Eyeball are no match for this caped crusader.

But Awesome Man also has a secret… Can you guess what it is?

The first picture book from Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist Michael Chabon perfectly captures the fantasy life of young superhero fans.

A great gift for the superhero obsessed, this book also models for kids a fun way to deal with their emotions-by being positronic!

Our Review Panel says...

Awesome Man has some pretty cool superhero talents, such as shooting positronic rays out of his eyeballs. But he also has an incredible secret. This beautifully illustrated tale is suitable for children of all ages.
