His big brother makes copies of himself, and his little sister is super-strong. And his baby brother even turns invisible!

When Captain Tornado comes to town and begins robbing banks, will Peter Powers and his totally lame abilities step up to save the day—or will he get cold feet? Join Peter Powers and his fantastic family for their first action-packed and fun-filled adventure to find out!
Peter Powers and His Not-So-Super Powers is the first in a new chapter book series of exciting stories about a young boy who has the worst superpower ever.

Every member of the Powers family has a superpower. Unfortunately, Peter's "super lame power" is the ability to make ice cubes. As Peter begins to overcome his embarrassment, he learns to control the power. Many characters, especially Peter's siblings, are unlikable, and the humor is flat. Nevertheless, fans of Pixar's The Incredibles may be drawn to the familiar premise. Cartoony halftone illustrations appear throughout.(Copyright 2017 by The Horn Book, Incorporated, Boston.
