12yo Katie is back and getting ready for school to start. Unfortunately, she is on the outs with both her best friend Beth and her new friends. Sidekick training is super boring and Katie is frustrated that the Mousetress is not clearing her name. Katie wants to fix a lot of things in her life but isn’t sure how to go about it.
Don't read book #2 before you read book #1. Though at first glance this looks like a realistically based graphic novel, the reader will need to buy into a world populated by a plethora of bizarre super heroes and sidekicks. The story is fun, but works best when exploring Katie’s relationship issues, which adds a dose of commonality and relatability. The pictures are bright and engaging, and if you don’t mind your world being saved by 217 genius cats, then this is your book.
