Excerpt
Mia Mayhem vs. the Super Bully CHAPTER 1
MIA MACAROONEY, THE SOCCER STAR!
Oh boy. We’re totally going to lose this soccer game. I doubt we’ll be able to make a comeback before time runs out. If by some miracle we do score a goal, I definitely need to stay out of it.
Why? Well, because the last time I was on this field, I kicked the ball so hard that I broke the goalpost by mistake!
Weird things happen to me all the time. In fact, all my life I thought I was a super-klutz. No matter how hard I tried to avoid it, I always caused a lot of mayhem.
But here’s the kicker: I found out that I’m not a super-klutz. . . . I’m actually just SUPER!
Like for real!
I. Mia Macarooney. Am. A. Superhero!
Ever since I found out, I’ve had to juggle a lot. During the day, I go to Normal Elementary School. But as soon as the school bell rings, I head off to the Program for In Training Superheroes, aka the PITS. And at the PITS, I go by my superhero name, MIA MAYHEM!
My parents and my best friend are the only people who know the truth. Sometimes I wish I could tell everybody. But I’ve learned that keeping things quiet is the only way to protect my secret identity. My mom and dad would know best. They’ve been superheroes for much longer than me.
