Wonder Woman was once a young girl--but an extraordinary one with great strength, great speed, and amazing abilities. But as she grows up on Paradise Island, she learns that sometimes the greatest strength is being kind, that sometimes slowing down to help friend is more important that winning, and that compassion can make the world a better place more than any act of heroism. Young readers will love this jacketed picture book that presents a unique vision of what it takes to become a hero.
