1: Meet the Heroes

Welcome to Traverse City, Michigan, population 18,000. The city has everything you might expect: malls, movie theaters, schools, and playgrounds. Kids swim here in the summer and build snowmen during the winter. Sometimes they pretend that they live in an ordinary place.

But Traverse City is far from ordinary. It is set on one of the Great Lakes and attracts tourists in every season. Thousands of people visit every year.

Still, few of them know the city’s real secret. Even fewer talk about it. You see, Traverse City is home to three likeable superheroes. This story is about them.

Meet Abigail, the oldest of our heroes by a whole eight minutes. When it comes to sports, she can’t be beat—not at lacrosse, not at the long jump, and certainly not at lumberjack events. In fact, pet owners everywhere depend on Abigail’s athletic skill. Cat stuck in a pine? No need to whine. Abigail’s Hairball Highjump always saves the day.

Andrew comes next. He’s Abigail’s twin brother, younger by a measly eight minutes. If it has wheels, Andrew can ride it. He’s lightning, learned, and the law on wheels—exactly the sort of daring driver you would want in an emergency. Just ask the local animal rescue team. The last time they got a call, Andrew beat the ambulance to the racetrack.

Last but definitely not least is Baby Zoë. She’s proof that big things can come in small packages. She still wears a diaper, but the Coast Guard keeps her on speed dial. Zoë puts the leg in legend.

Together these three heroes keep the streets and neighborhoods of Traverse City, Michigan,
