Honey, an inquisitive young parakeet living in the Australian Outback, decides to become a superhero after she spies a human family watching Superman. Since she already has the power of flight, all she needs to do is create a costume to conceal her true identity and then fly off in search of animals that need rescuing.
 
Unfortunately, every time she tries to help, Honey only ends up making matters worse. She spoils Kangaroo’s game of hide-and-go-seek by revealing his hiding place to Wallaby; Mr. Anteater must go hungry when she alerts the ants to his presence, and Mrs. Koala is made a laughingstock among bears when Honey pretends to be her Joey. Finally realizing that she’s not as heroic as she’d like, Honey gives up her day-saving efforts.
 
But what happens when someone actually needs Honey’s help? Will she rise to the challenge?

A hero with her heart in the right place
Honey kept trying to be a hero but every time she did she messed up things for the animals she tried to help. This made her very upset and she wanted to quit but her mama told her, her heart was in the right place and one day she would find someone to help. Later she found a lost baby dingo and he was very scared and sad. Honey helped him find his mom, brothers and sisters. I learned that you should always try to help others but only if they want your help. Also, to be watchful. This was a great story. It is very short but the pictures are great and little kids would love it. ~Alyssa, age 10.
 
Honey the Hero is a short read perfect for the little one that wants a story but has a very short attention span. The illustrations are colorful and eye catching, perfect for capturing the attention of the young reader.
