Hello, Clean Dreamers and Super Hero Believers,

Get ready to roll out with my latest creation, "Toilet Paper Man," where whimsy meets the every day in the most sparkling of tales. Dive into the pages where Wayne Thompson transforms into the hero our cities never knew they needed—but always wanted.

"Toilet Paper Man" isn't just about tackling the literal spills of life—it's a journey of laughter, unexpected friendships, and the magic found in the mundane. With each chapter, Wayne wipes away the grime, revealing the brighter side of the streets we walk and the places we visit.

Unroll this adventure, revel in the cleanliness, and discover how, sometimes, the hero you need most might just come wrapped in... toilet paper.

With a twirl of the roll,

There is something magical about watching children light up when a story meets their imagination right where it lives. This book was created to celebrate that moment. Inside its pages, twenty-six heroes leap, spin, fly, stomp, and giggle their way across colorful spreads, each powered by a different letter of the alphabet. The goal was simple: create a collection of rhyming tales that are fun to read aloud, easy to follow, and filled with joyful surprises that kids want to visit again and again.

The characters each bring their own charm. Astro Angel zooms through the stars, painting comets with cosmic brushes. Turbo Tornado gallops across prairies, spinning storms back into skies with the help of nature. Mega Mouse, pint-sized and powerful, whirls through her underground lair fixing burrows and blocking bullies. Whether it is Boomer Blaze catching popcorn meteors or Quantum Queen solving math puzzles with cubes of light, each story is a mini-adventure with rhythm, rhyme, and personality to spare.

What makes this collection different is how it avoids the usual bedtime routine trap. Not every hero ends with a nap. Some are mid-flight, mid-battle, mid-bounce. Some do not face villains at all. Instead, they spend their time helping, laughing, building, or even singing to calm nervous marmots. The book does not try to teach the alphabet by force. It simply lets each letter shine through a fun, action-packed character whose story happens to start with the same one.

"Alphabet Superheroes" was made to feel like a celebration. Not just of letters, but of what makes every child feel big and bold and full of ideas. It is a book to be read curled up on the couch or acted out in costume across the living room. If it sparks one silly voice or one proud reading moment, then the heroes inside have done their job. And something tells me they are just getting started.
