Children's & Educational; Adventure stories (Children's&YA); Personal & social issues: self-awareness & self-esteem (Children's&YA)

Meet 38 extraordinary children: an electric child, a flying child, elastic, invisible, miniature, a child made of cake.

The Remarkables is a big book of fantasy and humor that entertains and provides a way to talk about emotions and identity. Through Perrin's unique imagination, this inclusive encyclopedia celebrates individuality, strengths, and differences, allowing every reader to explore what miraculous superpower they would wish for—or might have.

Known for her original lift-the-flap explorations of fairytale stories, Perrin here turns the lens onto her child readers, showing each one that they are a superhero.

Each child describes their characteristics, tells anecdotes, and presents the special powers that make them unique. A ""class photo"" brings everyone together with a quiz finale for readers to discover their own superpowers.
