An Imprint Book

"Bearing all the campy hallmarks and high drama of a classic superhero romp, this entertaining ... tale also features interesting entomological tidbits throughout." - Kirkus Reviews

"The villain is dastardly, the heroes are staunch, and the costumes are impressive, making this high-quality standard superhero fare with the added bonus of some poignant details of how even the closest friendships may fade amid the social pressures of middle school." - Bulletin of the Center for Childrens Books

"Tucks both middle-school fashion advice and insect facts into a tale that scuttles along to a wildly destructive climactic battle." - Booklist
