Not your typical origin story.

Tamina just wanted a superhero doll that looked like her. What she got instead was a terrifying encounter with a mysterious stranger—one who gifted her a quiet power she doesn't understand… yet.

Now she sees things. Feels danger before it happens.
And she's facing more terrifying moments than any four-year-old should.

Can a young girl—just learning to read—really make a difference?
Can she become a superhero?

Little Hero is the first novella in the Boonrise series—a thoughtful, emotionally rich coming-of-age story that blends superhero mythos with quiet suspense and uncanny insight. Told through the eyes of a brave and curious child, it explores what it really means to be heroic when your only power is knowing what comes next.

Perfect for fans of When You Reach Me, Coraline, and A Monster Calls, this is a story for young adults—and for the adults who still believe in them.

Approximately 14,000 words.
