The Terrible Trio Book 1 - The (not so) Superheroes
In a world where all animals have superpowers, café workers Zeb the zebra, Margarine the penguin and Barry the lemur have been given the WORST powers of all.
Watching all the other superheroes save the world, day in and day out, Zeb, Margarine and Barry wonder if they will ever get to be superheroes for a day themselves.
Haddow’s lively, goofy characters are brought to life by artist Minky Stapleton’s fun and quirky illustrations. To be followed by Books #2 and #3, super-sized servings of slapstick comedy and heartfelt friendship.
