    I love this. Like all the best plays for young audiences, this short both entertains and has a lesson baked in. It is sweet and fun and weird, just like kids, and it would delight kids and grownups alike.

    Kiki's experiences on the playground bring me back to my childhood. Full of friendship and fun, this is the perfect play for young actors and audiences! Martin's 3rd Grade Heroes show us that imagination really can save the world.
