Meet the little girl who decided superheroes didn’t live only in comic books.

Then learn how she--and nine other amazing people--proved it.

Aggie Borkowski is only ten when she realizes the world needs help, and she can’t do the job alone. For the next dozen years, Aggie pursues her extraordinary goal: to gather a team of nine talented, dedicated people who want to be heroes.

Number one on that roster is Aggie’s remarkable grandfather, Bernie. His indomitable spirit--undaunted by personal tragedy and a sometimes-terrifying handicap--is key to the realization of Aggie’s dreams.

The Borkowskis’ story spans five decades, from Korea’s Demilitarized Zone to the high-tech minefield of life in the 21st Century, including a sojourn in that fearful place called middle school. With Bernie’s loving guidance, Aggie develops exceptional courage, all the while facing the conventional challenges of growing up and finding true love.

Aggie is just one girl trying to make a small difference…but like Bernie taught her, “A good deed is never too small.”

And it works even better when you can do it with a team.
