About this ebook
Most people think superhero work is awesome and fulfilling. Pizazz knows better. Whenever she’s in the middle of a movie or having fun with her friends, she has to dash off the save the world. And she’s always in the same outfit, including an embarrassing glittery cape, and the wedgies are unreal. Plus, being the good guy all the time is so not easy. Superheroes have bad days like everybody else, but Pizazz always has to be cheerful and noble and brave. More than anything, she just wants to be normal.

It’s Not Easy Being Super…
Pizazz, by Sophy Henn, illustrated by Sophy Henn, Aladdin1
The bit about me…
Okay. Well, I am 9¹/4, almost 9¹/2, and my name is PIZAZZ.
Yes, you did hear that right. My name is PIZAZZ.
And yes, it IS completely embarrassing.
And no, I don’t think it’s a proper name either, but as with most things around here, it really doesn’t seem to matter what I think about it.
With a ridiculous name like PIZAZZ, I should probably be a magician, or a POP STAR, or a really smelly perfume, but I am not any of those things.
What I actually am is super. Not super as in brilliant, or terrific, or even very good. I am SUPER super. Actually super. As in superhero, with powers and stuff.
Because of this, I HAVE to wear a costume, and part of that costume is a very annoying cape. It gets in the way, flapping around my feet and trailing in puddles and getting stuck in doors, but I still have to wear it
ALL
THE
TIME.
Not just when it’s cold.
Oh, and the best part…?
… My ridiculous name (which in case you hadn’t already guessed, I HATE) is written right across the back of my cape in HUGE shiny letters.
SUPER.
I come from a family of SUPERHEROES, which is generally how it works. Not always, I mean, there’s the occasional freak accident in a scientist’s lab or a weird weather/insect/reclusive millionaire incident
that ends up with a perfectly normal person being able to climb up glass buildings or make lightning or jump really, really, really high or suddenly talk in a low gravelly voice. But mainly you’re just born and find yourself in a family of SUPERHEROES and you can fly and stuff. Then, if you are like me you might find yourself wondering why you don’t feel quite as delighted about this as the rest of your family does.
The most annoying person in my family is definitely my little sister. She’s like a SUPERHERO crossed with a CHEERLEADER crossed with someone who is completely good at everything. Oh, and did I mention she’s really happy all the
