She had been sitting in the park, reading a comic book, when suddenly they appeared, as though they had beamed in from nowhere--Packrat and Cranium, Animal Princess and U.N. and Captain Hero. They were all kids from her new school and these were their secret identities. They were sworn to defend Earth and any other planet in danger and they wanted Rachel to join them. <P><P>In their very first adventure, Rachel earned her own secret name--Sketcher — and her emblem, a silver pencil crossed with a bolt of lightning. This was an exciting way to make new friends (even though Rachel wasn’t sure about Captain Hero--maybe he was just a little bit too bossy). Then make-believe turned real and the Defenders found themselves confronting an Earth villain. What’s more, it was Captain Hero who needed help and the newest Defender, Rachel, who had to take charge. <P><P> This lively, fast-paced novel tells what Rachel did and why a picture of all the Defenders now sits on the desk of their friend Police Lieutenant Stefano.
