I am going to let you in on a little secret…11 year olds are amazing! I don’t want to start a crazed panic in which everyone is going out trying to get their own 11 year olds but – seriously – they are very cool little people.
Last week, Miguel’s essay assignment was to create his own super hero and write a story and an accompanying comic strip if he so desired. He did desire and it is adorable.
So what super hero did my 11 year old create? Super Momo – the cat with Purr Power!
I asked if I could share his comic strip here on my blog and he said that I could. So, with his permission, I present: Super Momo by Miguel!

I LOVE IT.
I love it too but I might be biased.
And to think you made this same amazing 11 yr old sad today when you stomped on his joy of a white Christmas…… hehehe
I giveth and taketh away.
Very cool. I love the dramatic arc as well as the artwork. Kudos to Miguel.
He’s ready to be your intern.
Ha! A world in which cats are good! What an imagination this kid has.
Cats are only as good as the families that raise them, Brian!
He is very talented!
Very cool!
So cute!
I must know, is our hero’s name pronounced Mom-o or Mo-mo?
Great work, Miguel!
Mo-Mo (our cat)
This superhero cat has an awesome name. And, the spray bottle as a weapon might be the most awesome thing I’ve ever seen.
“No it’s the Spray Bottle!” <—LOVE it. Talented and humorous storyteller. Super Mo-Mazing! My grandson Tono is 11 so I get how amazing eleven year old's are! He's planning on being a nuclear physicist. And if that doesn't work out, a comic. At least he didn't say a politician. whew….
Those are so cool. There’s a website where you can have them made into a book. A REAL COMIC BOOK. (great gift idea, right?)
I just wanted to let you know that in northern Spain lives another cat named Momo, my pet. She’s 11 too. I really like that my Momo has a distant superhero cousin living in such a cool family
.
Also, I really like your blog, I read it often but I never comment, as I am from Spain and English is not my first language, so it’s a bit embarrassing to introduce myself in such a rusty English :S. Thank you for sharing your beautiful writing!
Thanks for commenting and your English is just fine. Momos of the world unite!
You’re right, Vikki; 11 is a cool age. And Miguel’s imagination is pretty cool too.
I’m amazed at how seriously awesome that is! He has the storytelling and comic stuff Dow, as well as the drawings. Love the spray bottle!
Now can you please put Momo in a Santa hat? I love this! Also – 11 year olds are very cool. I will get one soon.
Oh it’s so good!! Love!!
And I’m so glad that 11 year olds are keepers! Phew.
