See this little girl? Yeah, her- that’s Amani! As you can see, she absolutely ADORES superhero books.

Sometimes, she even likes to imagine what it would be like to be a superhero herself.

If Amani was a superhero, she’d end local poverty entirely with her generosity!

She’d also be SUPER strong—strong enough to stop cars.

But, Amani’s imaginations are often interrupted by reality.

See this right here? A little girl with quite the eye. Here she is at dinner, noticing something’s not quite right with her brother’s milk.

And there she goes—stopping the spoiled milk from being consumed.

I’ll admit though, Amani wishes it was so much cooler. That’s because in Amani’s superhero imagination, she’d be saving them from drinking the evilest of all poisons!

She’d be a hero— a SUPER hero).

And in order to become one, she knows that she’d have to get super strength.

Look at Amani, stuffing her face with every vitamin in the book!

Even her mom’s impressed!

It’s not just about physical strength either—Amani yearns for a stronger mind.

That’s why, as you can see, she’s raiding the library.

..And studying only the utmost elite texts she can find.

But the importance of fighting isn’t to be forgotten!

Which is why Amani is practicing her skills in the garage—it’s a great way to start off, right?

Y’know, just in case a goon gets in her way!

But what REALLY makes a hero is the ability to fly!

Using her new strength, Amani’s ready for the playground top!

This is it—just what Amani wishes for! It’s beautiful! Clouds in the sky, beautiful birds flying by! And- and-

Uh, okay, so—

Maybe Amani shouldn’t have done that…

Here we are. Poor Amani, waking up in the hospital with broken bones..

And her mom’s not too happy either—are we surprised?

Yeah… this is a problem.

But this is THE moment— one that would change her perspective entirely..

I love moments like these. Amani’s mother giving her the best advice— this time about what truly makes a superhero. It’s not the cape or the mask or anything, it’s just the heart. And helping people in her community IS being a superhero.

And her mother’s right! Amani has decided to put a pause on the old cape and goggles— take a more humbling and helpful approach to doing good!

.. Ready for another big moment? Look at Amani cleaning the messy garage and trying to do good. Look what it’s leading her to?

.. finding a book full of inspirational people, just like her. No capes, no flying. Just influential, powerful, real world people that Amani can REALLY learn from.

And this is all that Amani needs.
