You Are a Superhero, Too! is written in a parent's voice, and affirms the unique role a neuro-typical child (the main character) plays in the family, when living alongside a sibling with special needs. The book acknowledges the tender dynamics within their world and encourages the child in a way that says, "Your parents see you, love you, are proud of you, and know this road you walk is not easy," a message these children need and long to hear.
