Katana at Super Hero High by Lisa Yee is the fourth book in the DC Super Hero Girls series. The series focuses on DC's famous female super heroes, and also some villains. But before they become mortal enemies, they're just your not-so-average teenage supers that are learning what it means to be a hero and dealing with all the pressures that come along with it.

The students at Super Hero high are given a legacy assignment where they must interview members of their families to find out where they came from, their histories, their roots. Katana thinks that this assignment will help uncover the mystery of her grandmother's disappearance. And if that was all she had to worry about, it would be enough, but it's not. When mysterious swords appear along with a puzzling haiku, Katana has to unravel the intrigue before danger arrives. Luckily for Katana, she has some great friends to help her out.

Katana at Super Hero High is my favorite so far in this series. I loved the story line about discovering the supers' legacies, but I also loved that Yee addresses the pressures from expectations that the supers deal with. I think a lot of young kids will be able to relate. This series is all about empowering young girls and giving them heroes with all their flaws to look up to. My daughter and I both highly recommend this series!
