The story of Superman has always been my childhood favorite. The creators of Superman were Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster. They were classmates at Cleveland Glenville High School. They signed their DC Comics contract and received their first royalty check for Superman's creation on March 1, 1938. I was born on March 1, 1949, in Glenville Hospital, only the length of a football field from the house where Siegel and Shuster created Superman. Drawn to the gravitational pull of Superman, I dreamed of young kids having superpowers that are used only for the common good of mankind. I knew a girl named Ginny who wore polka dot dresses. I asked her what she would do if her polka dots possessed magic only for her. I never forgot that idea of "Little Ginny Polkadot" who, as Virginia Rose Stewart, was a seventh grader in Manhattan when her mother, Mandy, suddenly was killed in an "accident." Ginny never knew her father, Ramone, who had mysteriously disappeared before Ginny's birth. Ramone left Mandy a gift for their unborn child, a crystal lattice which, if used in the right way, gave Ginny unexplained superpowers. The world's evil nuclear powers China, Russia, and North Korea race each other to discover Ginny's true identity, kidnap her, in their schemes to control those superpowers for their own purposes. Little Ginny wants to understand her father and her own mission in life. This is the first of a series of twelve books about the challenges and adventures of the superpower of "Little Ginny Polkadot."
