Dia's Power

★★★★★

A lovely ending to a book series that has helped me and my little one navigate tricky emotional situations together. He will refer to his favourite superheroes now (Alf, Bea, Caz and Dia) to help me understand when he's done something kind, understanding and loving.

Alf's Power

★★★★★

Great story that links in a very subtle and age appropriate way that self awareness is everyone's inner power and how gut-reactions take that power away from us. It also sheds light to some conditions our children might come across and helps them empathise with people who might look different to them.

Caz's Power

★★★★★

Love this short story. Teaching our children a key life skill such as empathy. As a parent or guardian it is very important to teach our children kindness, compassion and gratitude by looking and thinking of different feelings and emotions to overcome a situation with friendships.

Bea's Power

★★★★★

What a lovely story teaching our youngsters the power of self-love. It is important to teach our children not to judge on physical attributes but to focus on personality traits too. I love the extra detail at the back of the book explaining the background objects which is educating our children what is good for our environment.
