Meet Jo Schmo, fourth-grade superhero! With the help of her drooling dog Raymond, her retired sheriff grandpa, and some very special crime fighting tricks like the Russian Toe Hold, she keeps the streets of San Francisco safe from bad guys in this new chapter book series for early middle-grade readers.
Greg Trine has never been a superhero, but he loves writing about them in his series The Adventures of Jo Schmo. Greg lives in southern California with his family. He is also the author of the Melvin Beederman, Superhero series. Visit him at www.gregtrine.com
"Lighter-than-air superhero fun."--Kirkus
"Trine’s offbeat brand of humor and Dormer’s angular, childlike illustrations . . . hit the mark."—Publishers Weekly "There’s plenty of goofy middle-grade appeal here for both boys and girls; hand this to kids suffering from Phineas and Ferb withdrawal now that school is back in session."—Bulletin
