Blurb

A superhero with an oddball superpower.

Discover a new kind of superhero in Pillow-Man!

Secret identity: Sam DeVenoe, star shortstop for the Emerson Eagles.

One night while Sam is biking home after a game, he has a mysterious encounter and is granted an unusual, slightly odd, maybe even a little bizarre “super” power.

As Sam tries to discover the limits of his strange new ability, his best friend Gavin is determined to transform him into crimefighter. But donning a mask and patrolling the street on their bikes leads to unexpected trouble. A fire breaks and Sam’s superpower is put to the test when spots someone in danger.

A Hero Awakens is a superhero origin story with a unique take on what it means to be "super." Tag along with Pillow-Man on a quirky adventure about friendship, baseball, and the ups and downs being a hero.

Author

Blake A. Hoena grew up in central Wisconsin, where, in his youth, he wrote stories about robots conquering the Moon and trolls lumbering around in the woods behind his parents house, and the fact that the trolls were hunting for little boys had nothing to do with Blake’s pesky brothers. Later, he moved to Minnesota to pursue a Masters of Fine Arts degree in Creative Writing from Minnesota State University, Mankato.

Since graduating, Blake has written more than thirty books for children, including retellings of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow and the Perseus and Medusa myth. Most recently, he’s working on a series of graphic novels about two space alien brothers, Eek and Ack, who are determined to conquer our big blue home.
