About this book

Freddie and his mom are off to New York City to visit Uncle Jorge, but a brand-new pair of super zapatos has Freddie wondering if he’ll still be fast enough to help when it counts. Busy streets, subways, and a sudden problem in a traffic jam put his quick thinking to the test. This fast-paced, funny adventure blends superhero flair with everyday family life. Short chapters and lively illustrations make it a great pick for newly independent readers.
