Another Superhero Day
by
Shaniece Vassell
Theo is a superhero—but, of course, only his mom knows that. Theo is also autistic. He is shy, unique, cool, and he doesn’t like to be touched. One day at the amusement park, he is waiting in line for the Ferris wheel with his mom when he meets Latoya. Latoya is also autistic. She is outgoing, active, and very friendly. When the conductor of the Ferris wheel is in danger and no one knows what to do, Theo transforms into a superhero, only to find Latoya transforming too! It will take some quick thinking and a lot of courage for our superheroes to save the conductor. Theo and Latoya prove that autism does not stop them from being friends, leaders, and good examples of overcoming challenges.
