The Fix-Its: Power Up with Power Drill is the latest offering from I Can Read Comics, an early reader line that familiarizes children with the world of graphic novel storytelling and encourages visual literacy in emerging readers. In the second installment of Sarah Lynn Reul’s STEM-focused series, all the tools in the toolbox are excited when a new member arrives—Power Drill!

When the toolbox gets its first power tool, a drill eager to get to work, everybody else kicks back and relaxes—until Power Drill’s battery runs out! Can the rest of the tools help their new friend recharge?

The Fix-Its: Power Up with Power Drill is a Level Three I Can Read Comic, geared for kids who are comfortable with comics and can read on their own but still need a little help.

What happens when the newest, strongest member of the team runs out of power?

• STEM for Kids: An exciting, easy-to-understand introduction to how batteries and power tools work.
• Creative Problem Solving: When Power Drill stops working, the other tools have to put their heads together to find a clever solution.
• A Sweet Friendship Story: A heartwarming tale about helping a new friend and learning that everyone has something important to contribute.
• Perfect for Emerging Readers: With easy-to-follow panels and simple text, this comic is ideal for children who are beginning to read on their own.
