k.a. Justice. A lively little boy with a creative imagination lives in Cleveland, Ohio, where the lake is "eerie," and the river is "crooked." Blessed with "superhero" parents, his dad is a scientist fighting water pollution, and his mom is a doctor who battles germs that make people sick.

Justice discovers his alter ego J-Man also possesses "superpowers" and that a little kindness and consideration can change the fate of the world.

It is a heartwarming story that emphasizes that children do not need to look further than their families to find heroes and role models. The story features an African American boy, highlighting the importance of values such as kindness and friendship.
