Reviews
“This book is a must-read for every parent and child! Abigail breaks down foundational life principles into simple easy to understand steps that are valuable for both kids and adults. I love the Super Kid creed and the call to action for kids to step up and become the best version of themselves. And the fact that it comes from a 9-year old child allows my children to connect even more deeply with the message.”
Hal Elrod, International best-selling author, The Miracle Morning
“I love how Abigail breaks down exactly how to be a super kid into 6 bite sized “scoops.” A book written by a kid for kids to understand they are super and the power of affirmations. Love everything about it!”

“Abigail Perez’s book, “How to Be a Super Kid” touched me with both innocence and insight that only a child can share. Her message to be kind and to believe in your own strength is greatly needed at a time when children,teens, and even adults are searching for ways to deal with societal pressures and problems. Abigail’s book gives me hope that the younger generation is truly going to change the world.”
-Sarah K. Mason, Past chair, Carroll Education Foundation
“How to be a Super Kid” is the perfect book for those children who are struggling to define their place in this world. This book is written by a child who is trying to reach other children on the most basic needs -how to be a good person, how to be a friend, how to show care and kindness. She puts this in terms of being a superhero. This is a must read for young readers as it is a valuable teaching tool.”
-Rebecca McRae Langston, Kids Matter International, Board Member
“Abigail’s super power is the way she channels her compassion into books that inspire kids. She is the perfect example of what happens when a young person discovers her talents and gifts and then uses that super power to help the world shine brighter.”
-Claudia Beeny, PhD, Founder, House of Shine
“From the perspective of an artist what I really love about Abigail’s work is that it is super creative, it’s super on point with the same psychology that I use as a grown-up moving through the world to empower myself and it’s absolutely adorable and enjoyable for a grown-up to read and it will probably be the best book that an adult could read to their child. I give this [book] 17 stars!”
-Brotha James, Pop Artist/Musician
