Double Trouble

Static Shock Chapter Books #1

by Tracey West

TV’s first and only Saturday morning African American teen superhero!

Double Trouble is the story of how Virgil Hawkins, a street-smart kid with attitude became Static-a street smart kid with Shocking superpowers! Gliding over his city on a magnetic "air board" - think flying skateboard - Static zaps the bad dudes into submission, and keeps it real with his friends.
If only this superhero stuff could help with homework-or girls.

I'm much too old for this book, but it was still fun to read.
