About this listen

Inner city middle school student Kenny Wright imagines himself as a superhero—but when he faces peer pressure and bullying, can he find his strength in real life?

Kenny Wright is a kid with a secret identity. In his mind, he's Stainlezz Steel, super-powered defender of the weak. In reality, he's a chess club devotee known as a "Grandma's Boy," a label that makes him an easy target for bullies. Kenny wants to bring a little more Steel to the real world, but the question is: can he recognize the real strength and goodness inside himself? Or will peer pressure force him to make the worst choice of his life?

Critic reviews

"The authors never get too preachy for their own good.... Told with the humorous style characteristic of Patterson when he's in preteen mode, the novel fits right in with I Funny, Middle School, and the like. Adding to the book's charm [are] comic-filled pages that help further illustrate Kenny's inner workings as well as present just plain fun superhero stories. A smart and kind story topped with just the right amount of social justice."—Kirkus Reviews

"Packed with fast-paced tween-speak, Public School Superhero will entertain and enlighten.... Readers will also enjoy the multiple pages of funny, comic book-style illustrations packed with superhero stunts and preteen angst.... Definitely buy this one."—School Library Journal

"With admirers of all ages, don't be surprised if everyone wants to get their hands on [Patterson's] latest."—Booklist

Great read

Students that struggle with peer pressure and do t think there is a way out need to read this book! A well written book with funny antidotes and a serious middle school issue that has realistic problem solving. And of course, one has to like a book that has a superhero!

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
