The Snack-Stand Superheroes

By Marianne von Bracht

(Based on a true story)

This is the best hiding spot!

What’s that?

I don’t know. Let’s open it!

Wow!

It’s like a hidden treasure!

Free candy!

But I think it belongs to someone.

We should return it.

Yeah. I bet it’s from the snack stand.

We found this under the bleachers. Is it yours?

Yes! A few days ago, someone broke in and stole all our candy.

Thanks for being honest and bringing it back!

Do you think this is how superheroes feel?

I don’t know. But I want to feel like this all the time.

Yeah. It’s even better than candy.
