Summary:

"Each origin story is a thrilling, self-contained bedtime story. Baby Kal-El makes a dramatic escape from the planet Krypton, arriving on Earth in a rocket ship. Wonder Woman and Nubia are shaped out of clay by their mother Hippolyta, and given their powers by the gods. Each Green Lantern--Hal Jordan, John Stewart, and Jessica Cruz--came by their power rings in interesting ways. Young super heroes will love learning about how their favorite characters came to be."--Amazon.
