Where Superpowers Grow - Priscilla Salcedo

Where Superpowers Grow is a heartwarming, beautifully illustrated children's book that celebrates inclusion, resilience, and the unique abilities of every child.

Set in a joyful and welcoming school, this empowering story follows a group of children as they learn, play, and grow-each in their own way. Some zoom confidently in wheelchairs, some take brave steps with walkers, and others use special tools that help their bodies move, breathe, and thrive. Through it all, one powerful truth shines: what makes them extraordinary isn't what sets them apart-it's the strength, courage, and magic within them.

Written in gentle, rhythmic verse and brought to life through vibrant watercolor illustrations, Where Superpowers Grow introduces young readers to themes of disability awareness, adaptive equipment, emotional growth, and inclusive friendships in a way that feels joyful, empowering, and accessible.

• Build empathy and understanding for others

• Celebrate differences with confidence and kindness

• See assistive devices as empowering tools-not limitations

• Develop self-esteem and a positive self-image

• Recognize their own unique strengths and abilities

Perfect for parents, teachers, caregivers, therapists, and early childhood classrooms, this inclusive story is an excellent resource for introducing conversations around special needs, diversity, and social-emotional learning (SEL).

Whether read at home, in schools, or in pediatric and therapy settings, Where Superpowers Grow offers a meaningful and uplifting message for children of all abilities.

You are strong. You are capable. And your differences are your superpowers.
