    All grandmothers are wonderful, and this gran is no exception. She might not lift buildings or go whooshing through the sky, but she can plan super sleepovers, tell tickle-filled stories, and even put together great disguises to make a superhero team with her grandchildren.
    Patterns, vibrant colors, and background graphics highlight the fantastical element of the children’s play. While the story feels familiar, the relationships are irresistible; anyone without a Superhero Gran will desperately want one after reading this. Children blessed with fun grandparents will love this celebration of that very special relationship .
    —Kirkus Reviews
