Zachary’s time was no longer his own with his new found big brother responsibilities. Beyond his normal chores he is now expected to help all the time. To make it fun Zachary turns into a superhero when he wears his special black-framed glasses. The most difficult task at hand was to keep Layla sleeping during nap time. But how can one young boy accomplish this when there are many outside forces threatening Layla’s slumber?
Have no fear, superhero Zachary is here to save the day from strong breezes, chirping birds, train whistles, and a grizzly bear who means no harm. Through Ms. Stemke’s expert rhyme and consonant blends storytelling Zachary learns what family is all about and what it truly takes to be a good big brother.
Children’s author, Kathy Stemke spins an adventurous imagination of big brother responsibilities into a delightful tale accompanied with a comprehensive teacher’s learning guide making for a winning combination of a must have book for libraries and classrooms around the globe.
Jack Foster’s brilliant illustrations soar from the pages into your child’s imagination making reading a pure delight.

ReplyDeleteGreat review, Donna. I'll be reading this one for the tour too. It sounds adorable.
ReplyDeleteI think The Flash was a forensic scientist, but I wouldn't stake my life on it.
Best of luck with your tour, Kathy.
