Storybox Playlist: Stories About All Kinds of Superheroes

When you think about superpowers, it’s always flying, x-ray vision, and shooting webs from your wrists that tend to come to mind first. But in reality, superpowers are any unique strength you have — something that makes you special, something you can do that not a lot of other people can. For example, maybe you’re great at making people smile, or perhaps you’re always offering to lend a helping hand. Everyone has a superpower!
