He has ordered a new pet, a chameleon, to keep him company while he rests up and selects a new sidekick. Of course, his dog and mouse are very jealous of the strange new visitor, so there is some rivalry right away.
His pets each decide that they should apply to work as his sidekick, in order to help him out and, more importantly, to get to spend more time with him. They even find a former pet, Static Cat, who has been off chasing criminals, but is willing to coach them.
What follows is an adventurous ride where they all try to fight crime and impress Captain Amazing.

Love Sidekicks! It is a perfect combination of animal fantasy and superhero story. I know it's going to be a top circulator for my lib this year.
