In "Violet Superhero / Big Business," WordGirl faces off against two very different foes. First, she encounters Violet, a young girl who has become convinced that she has superpowers thanks to her extensive collection of superhero memorabilia. Despite the fact that she is not actually able to do anything superhuman, Violet is determined to fight crime alongside WordGirl. When Violet inadvertently causes more problems than she solves, WordGirl must find a way to gently discourage her from continuing her superhero antics.
Next, WordGirl goes head-to-head with the wealthy and powerful Mr. Big, who has been using his business empire to manipulate the city's economy and drive small businesses out of business. WordGirl has her work cut out for her as she tries to level the economic playing field and protect her friends' businesses from Mr. Big's nefarious schemes. As always, WordGirl's quick wit and fearless attitude help her come out on top in the end.
"Violet Superhero / Big Business" is a great example of what makes WordGirl such a popular and enduring children's show. With its engaging characters, clever storylines, and positive messages about teamwork, perseverance, and doing the right thing, this episode--like the rest of the series--is sure to delight, entertain, and educate young viewers.
