INTRODUCTION
GETTING STARTED
One for all and all for one! When we get together, there’s lots of fun!
In Spider-Man and Friends: Secret Missions, join forces with Spider-
Man, Spider-Girl and Wolverine and help them to solve problems around
town. With exciting journeys, you’ll learn spelling, animal names, counting,
money concepts, problem solving and much more!
Raised by his Aunt May, Peter Parker has unique abilities that
he uses to help others. Under the secret identity of Spider-Man,
Peter possesses superhuman strength and reflexes. No matter
where he swings, Spider-Man always remembers that with
great power comes great responsibility.
May Parker is Spider-Man’s younger cousin and possesses
the same abilities as the famous wall-crawler. Like Spider-Man,
Spider-Girl can spin webs and uses them to swing all over the
neighborhood while helping others
A well traveled young hero, Logan has lived in both Canada
and Japan. Sometimes made fun of by the kids at school for
being different, Logan secretly possesses a desire to help
others as Wolverine.
