    Jack was a ball of energy, constantly bouncing from one spot to another. Sitting still was a concept alien to him. He found it hard to concentrate, making it difficult for him to grasp what was taught in class.

    Ms. Evans, his teacher, was patient with him. She saw the sparkle in his eyes and knew that he was different, not less. She was determined to help him harness his superpower.

    His friend Sammy was always there for him. She understood him and was always ready to help. While Jack was a whirlwind of energy, Sammy was calm and steady, the perfect balance.

    One day, during their playtime, Sammy told Jack about a superhero she read about in her book who also had a hard time sitting still. Jack was immediately interested.
