Rachel Ruiz was inspired to write her first children's book, When Penny Met POTUS, after spending 2012 working for President Barack Obama on his re-election campaign. After a long day at the office, Rachel was greeted by her inquisitive 3-year-old daughter, who asked her questions like, Did you have lunch with POTUS today? Is he allergic to peanut butter? Does he like to wear red socks? The list goes on! When the 3 year old met POTUS at a campaign rally, the inspiration for this book was born.

Rachel is currently writing six more children's books, which will be out Fall 2017. For the past 20 years, she's worked as a TV writer and producer, most recently for Oprah Winfrey. She lives in her hometown of Chicago with her husband and their daughter.

    This is the third of the Superhero Harry books.

    Harry is a lovable, upbeat and energetic second grader who plans to invent his way into being a superhero. His inventions are goofy and seldom work, but he's always in there pitching his latest idea and trying to do good. He has a next-door neighbor gal pal, supportive parents, lots of friends and a can-do attitude that won't quit. Look at the cover of any Harry book and the kid smiling back at you is exactly the kid you're going to get.

    Harry first came out in a series of four books. Those books are available individually. Note, though, that all four Harry adventures have been combined into a one book collection, "Superhero Harry", that currently is set to cost less than any one of the single adventure books.

    The individual books, (48 pages each), are "The Superhero Project", "The Recess Bully", "The Runaway Robot", and "The Wild Field Trip". In each book Harry tries to invent superhero stuff, and generally fails, but also learns a lesson.

    In "Superhero Project" we learn that you can be hero doing ordinary helpful things. In "Recess Bully" we learn a bit about why a bully might be a bully, and how to make him a friend. In "The Runaway Robot" Harry's robot runs amok, and Harry learns that even superheroes have to do chores. In "The Wild Field Trip" Harry's invention actually works, but he learns it's always a good idea to also take a banana on a field trip to the zoo.

    So, these are fun and bite size. Harry is upbeat, creative, and enthusiastic. Since these books are for brand new readers I don't know if they fit in as STEM books, (Science, Tech, Engineering, Math), because they don't introduce any actual scientific principles. But, they certainly emphasize that building and designing and engineering and daydreaming and so on are fun and rewarding, and that seems like a good place to start. And, since Harry has friends, displays empathy, has supportive friends and teachers, and is just basically committed to living fully, I don't see any downside here.

    The books are basic. Vocabulary is appropriate and not childish. Drawings are crisp, boldly colored, and a bit exaggerated. Even the type font is big and friendly. The writing isn't sing-song or overly simple. Tone is consistent, and every story is well paced and well structured. The whole effect seems very early-reader friendly and engaging. For what it's worth, I like that these aren't franchised, licensed cartoon/movie tie-in type books, of which there are plenty.

    The bottom line, to be fair, is that at first I thought these were a little light on content. But, as I read more and reflected, the stories grew on me and I could see these being very welcome and entertaining first chapter books. A nice find.

    (Please note that I received a free ecopy of the collected book set without a review requirement, or any influence regarding review content should I choose to post a review. Apart from that I have no connection at all to either the author or the publisher of this book.)
