Little Fella is a strong, feisty little boy character, full of big ideas despite his small sizel One day he decides to become a superhero. One by one he 'rescues' a butterfly, a ladybird and a jar full of snails, but his Big Sister pooh poohs all of this: "That doesn't make you a superhero!" she says. But when Big Sister comes face to face with a monster of her own - a big hairy spider - Little Fella rescues her in true Superhero fashion! Repetition, a strong refrain, an undaunted hero and lots of (appealing!) insects make this a very special and different picture book.
