Dizzy wants to be the best! But with everything she’s tried, including roller skating, this teen can only achieve one thing – disaster. Just when Dizzy is ready to pack it in, everything changes when the Negatrixes attack, forcing her to take up the super-powered mantle of ‘Burb Defender! But if she wants to save the world, she’s going to have to assemble the coolest skating crew the ‘Burbs have ever seen!

“GETTING DIZZY is where friendship, super powers, and skating collide. I’m so excited for readers to meet superheroes-in-the-making, Dizzy and her skater pals, and experience the friendships that can only be formed by falling on your face ten thousand times in front of each other,” said Fontana. “These quirky teens bring the laughs and the heart to the skatepark — all while saving the day in a major way.”[/vc_column_text][us_separator][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][us_image_slider ids=”33774,33775,33776,33777,33778,33779″ nav=”thumbs” fullscreen=”1″ img_size=”full” img_fit=”contain”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][us_separator][vc_column_text]Celia Moscote is a storyboard artist and illustrator based out of the greater Los Angeles area who is best known for their work on Gabby Rivera’s Juliet Takes a Breath graphic novel from BOOM!
