Deep Space Hijack

Three trillion miles away from earth, it is difficult to make an emergency landing.  So it is a good thing that Superman is on the scene when Jimmy, an intrepid reporter for The Daily Planet, and the crew of the Long Range Explorer find that their hyperdrive engines are dead.  With colorful “BOOMS!” “BZZTS!” and “THWOOMS!” Superman is fighting off space scavengers, pushing giant space rocks out of the way, and finally coming face to face with the evil Kanjar Ro.  Luckily, Jimmy makes it back to earth in time for his deadline, and readers may admire the way he includes the five W’s in his article on the adventure.  Young Superman fans will enjoy this little chapter book that ends with discussion and writing prompts.
