Join us to help launch Craig Cormick's latest book - Superheroes for a Day.Three friends with autism try to save their school from never‐ending maths in this fast and fun story, told from a rarely seen perspective.
Superheroes for a Day tells the engaging story of Max, Daniel, and Natalie’s mission to save their school from endless maths lessons. Using their unique abilities like heightened memory and attention to detail, they turn their differences into superpowers. While handling their individual traits, they find the courage to become heroes, at least for a day, in the eyes of their schoolmates.
The book seeks to normalize the experiences of autistic kids who are often seen as uncool because of their quirks. By making them the heroes, the story offers insight into their personal experiences and perspectives in a fun and engaging manner, resonating with readers in mainstream classrooms. Superheroes for a Day is an empowering tale of friendship, bravery, and the remarkable‐ness that often goes unnoticed in those who are different.
Dr Craig Cormick OAM is the author of over 30 books for adults and children, several of them winning awards. He is a member of the Children’s Book Council of Australia. Dr Cormick has a son on the autism spectrum and is based here in Canberra.
