Author Visit: Thomas Zachos

On Monday, January 29th our Kindergarten to Grade 2 students will be hearing from children's book author, Thomas Zachos. 

Thomas’ book, Superheroes Like Me, is a children's book about an individual with a disability who believes that people can accomplish anything no matter the limitations or obstacles they may face. 

This book represents the culmination of Thomas’s experiences both as a child with no disability to one that evolved into having significant disabilities. This perspective uniquely qualifies Thomas to address these issues in a frank and honest manner.

Living through these experiences allows him to communicate this to children who, with and without disabilities, can gain from his story. Superheroes Like Me made it onto the FriesenPress Bookstore’s Bestseller list within five days of its release. 


We will have copies of the book in our school library. 

If you would like to order a copy for yourself ahead of time, please email the school. Thomas is happy to write a personalized message to your family or child for books that are ordered ahead of time.  

Alternatively, you can always purchase the book at another time from one of its online distributors.
