Yes, I wonder if the superpower might just be Toni's managing to be a really sweet, helpful, interesting kid. So maybe that's the origin of his superpower. I kind of like thinking that average little kids who are striving to do well can feel confident enough in themselves to feel like superheroes. Maybe just my hope. But, a good discussion.ea_anthony wrote: ↑25 Jul 2018, 18:32 I believe R.D Base wanted to show that every child can become a Superhero through good behaviour. I guess most parents would call any child that willingly performs household chores or even just put all their toys in case their own hero. Origin backstory or not, should not detract from the role model Toni the Superhero is being portrayed as.

Agreed, that's why I believe R.D Base has probably succeeded in making Toni the Superhero the gift that keeps giving.Eva Darrington wrote: ↑27 Jul 2018, 19:49Yes, I wonder if the superpower might just be Toni's managing to be a really sweet, helpful, interesting kid.

Yes! Very right, a good example he is going to be. Let's create an embellished memory In the kids head. They will always want to be like Toni, because of the benefits in what he has. And i think that's a good one for recommendation and advice.ea_anthony wrote: ↑25 Jul 2018, 18:32 I believe R.D Base wanted to show that every child can become a Superhero through good behaviour.

Every kid possess some qualities,which if nourished properly turn a child into a real superhero. In this book we see him wearing superhero costume,but at only one place. So we can predict that his happy contribution to "ordinary tasks" is a real source of his strength as he keeps everyone happy. This is a real source of inspiration for kids.Dael Reader wrote: ↑24 Jul 2018, 20:23 Isn't every kid a superhero at heart? It doesn't matter whether or not he has supernatural powers. He likes to read! That's the only real superpower you need!

I consider this story in a same way. For kids he is a role model character with a good values and ethics. So children can learn from this at a very early stage.Alena_Surya wrote: ↑30 Jul 2018, 22:27 Can't the origin of his powers be that he was brought up well? His mom or parents instilled good values and ethics in him.

I will be an achievement if children learn good habits through Toni's character. Then this book and Toni's character becomes a source of power for them.JideOla123 wrote: ↑30 Jul 2018, 08:23Yes!
