The Acorn Avenger: Origins of a Hero is a funny, action-packed illustrated chapter book for kids ages 7-12 who love superhero adventures, animal stories, and fast-paced middle grade fiction.
When Nutty McFurson, a curious young squirrel, stumbles upon a hidden laboratory deep beneath Pinewood Forest, his life changes in an instant. After falling into a glowing vat of mysterious G.O.O., Nutty gains incredible powers, lightning-fast speed, bursts of static energy, and the ability to leap into action when danger strikes.
But becoming a hero isn't as easy as it sounds.
With the help of his peanut-butter-loving sidekick Squeaky, the wise Professor Hoot, and a cast of quirky woodland allies, Nutty must protect the forest from the sinister Dr. Nibblesworth and his growing Rat Army. As strange machines powered by the mysterious G.O.O. begin to threaten everything they know, Nutty is forced to step up and become the hero Pinewood Forest needs.
Packed with humor, heart, and comic-book energy, Origins of a Hero delivers laugh-out-loud moments, exciting action, and memorable characters that keep young readers turning pages.
