MODESTO, Calif., March 15, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Bestselling author, speaker, and coach Jeannette Paxia has published a heartwarming children\u2019s book that teaches kids about the big impact they can have on their communities through little acts of kindness. Colorfully Illustrated by artist Barbara Alvarado, \u201cI AM a Superhero\u201d teaches young people that, just like their favorite Marvel and DC characters, they can make the world a better place by helping out at home, standing up for vulnerable people, and extending compassion to others in need.<\/p>\n

\u201cI AM a Superhero\u201d sweeps readers up on an imaginative journey to self-discovery as a child dreams of having superpowers but feels limited by their inability to fly and lack of super-human strength. The child eats a healthy breakfast and sets out on their bike, fantasizing along their ride about saving the day. At school, the child pretends to defend Gotham City as Batman on the playground with friends and helps up a new student who fell and hurt herself. Later, the child works alongside their teammates to find fun and success during a baseball game. At the end of the book, the child realizes they have been a superhero all along \u2013 helping someone when they\u2019re down, celebrating camaraderie, and being kind to their body.<\/p>\n

\u201cThrough this book, I was trying to bring the success principles that Jack Canfield teaches to children,\u201d Paxia said. \u201cI want to empower kids. I was bullied as a child, which really motivated me as an adult to raise awareness about this topic and prevent the violence and damage that bullying inevitably creates. If we can empower and build confidence in kids when they\u2019re young, we can prevent some of the lasting effects of negative experiences like this, so they don\u2019t have to relearn compassion and empathy as an adult.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ultimately, Paxia\u2019s book reminds children that they are all important and that they each have their own unique role in making the world a better place. \u201cI AM a Superhero\u201d celebrates kids\u2019 individuality, combats bullying, and builds self-confidence that the little, seemingly invisible things people do are truly what counts the most. The book also provides a comforting message to parents and a friendly reminder to them that they, too, are superheroes.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe author was able to capture our \u2018ordinary\u2019 actions to highlight the value in them,\u201d a reader wrote in a five-star review of the book on Amazon. \u201cThe language is clear and the message is profound! Kids would love reading this book and learning these lessons at a very young age!\u201d<\/p>\n
