Join Captain Pump as he teaches kids about health, fitness, well-being, and being a good person.

George is the janitor of a school just like yours. He wishes he could find a way to help the kids get fit and understand the benefits of living a healthy lifestyle. But unfortunately, he just doesn't know how. Until one day, a tiny fitness dynamo pops out of a magic comic book and changes janitor George's life forever.

This is Captain Pump--the World's First Fitness Superhero. The Adventures of Captain Pump takes the reader into a land of health and well-being. The story takes place here in the real world, but the lessons are learned in Pumpland, a magical land where healthy living and social acceptance and respect for all people are the ways of life. Of course, there is always someone or something threatening the healthy ways of Pumpland. Villains from far and wide keep the Captain on his toes as he diligently keeps the citizens of Pumpland and his friends in the real world safe.
