Superheroes leap buildings, chase bad guys, and save the city from the evil Emperor Zog. Superheroes DON'T babysit. Except when their dad asks them to. In an epic battle of sibling rivalry, will this superhero finally meet her match? Or will she find exactly what she's been missing all along? In Superheroes Don't Babysit, author Amber Hendricks tells a story full of humor and heart, and illustrator Kyle Reed's superpowered illustrations pack a punch with their bold colors and sharp lines. This book is fun to look at and to read with siblings who consider themselves rivals or friends, or maybe something in between.
Born and raised in the Midwest, Amber Hendricks grew up reading everything she could get her hands on--including the morning cereal boxes. That passion melded into writing, and by the age of eleven, she was writing and binding her own "books." Amber has worn many hats in her career, but she has always circled back to her first love of telling stories. In addition to Superheroes Don't Babysit, Amber is the author of Sophie and Little Star, Extraordinary Ordinary Ella, and the Little Nature Explorers board book series. She lives in Missouri with her husband and two children. Kyle Reed is an illustrator whose work has appeared in children's books, magazines, animation, and advertising. He lives in Ontario, Canada.

Any caregiver who has witnessed siblings start World War III over a hairbrush will appreciate this caped crusade, which effectively makes the case that putting aside sibling rivalry is a job big enough for a superhero. Combines familiar picture-book tropes into something clever and new. --Kirkus Reviews ...Will likely win over children with its comic book appearance and neat resolution. --School Library Journal
