This heartfelt middle grade debut about grief, creativity, and the healing power of friendship shows that not all heroes wear capes and is perfect for fans of John David Anderson and Ali Benjamin.
Whether theyâre on the baseball field or in Nateâs basement devouring the newest issue of their favorite comic book, Dan and Nate are always talking. Until theyâre not.
After an accident at baseball practice, Nateâs fallen into a coma. And if Dan ever wants to talk to Nate again, heâs got to take a page out of his hero Captain Nexusâs book, and do whatever it takes to save the day.
But heroes have powersâand without Nate, all Dan has is a closet stuffed with comics and a best-friend-shaped hole in his heart. Thereâs no way a regular kid can save the day all on his own. Right?
