Josie O'Malley does a lot to help out Mam after her father goes off
to fight the Nazis, but she wishes she could do more-like all those
caped heroes who now seem to have disappeared. If Josie can't fly
and control weather like her idol, Zenobia, maybe she can put her
math smarts to use cracking puzzles for the government. After an
official tosses out her puzzler test because she's a girl, it soon
becomes clear that an even more top-secret agency has its eye on
Josie, along with two other applicants: Akiko and Mae. The trio
bonds over their shared love of female superhero celebrities. But
during one extraordinary afternoon, they find themselves
transformed into the newest (and youngest!) superheroes in town. As
the girls' abilities slowly begin to emerge, they learn that their
skills will be crucial in thwarting a shapeshifting henchman of
Hitler, and, just maybe, in solving an even larger mystery about
the superheroes who've recently gone missing. Inspired by
remarkable real-life women from World War II-this pulse-pounding
adventure features forty-eight pages of comic book style graphic
panels throughout the book. Readers will want to don their own
capes for an adventure, and realize they have the power to be a
superhero, too!
