Zapato Power

ZAPATO POWER is an award-winning chapter book series featuring Freddie Ramos, a boy who receives a mysterious box with super-powered purple sneakers. From then on, Freddie searches for ways to be a superhero. But can you be a hero and still go to elementary school? In each book, Freddie solves a mystery and helps others in his multicultural community. Using slides of comic book style illustrations, the author shares her process for developing plot and character. Program includes reading songs and writing ideas for the classroom. Grades 1-4.
