Young adult book series will expand on the new DC Super Hero Girls universe.

Award-winning author Lisa Yee will write a middle-grade novel series as part of the new DC Super Hero Girls franchise from Random House Books for Young Readers, an imprint of Random House Children’s Books, and Warner Bros. Consumer Products and DC Entertainment.

The new middle-grade novels will be part of the larger DC Super Hero Girls franchise, available in spring 2016.

The books will see iconic DC Comics characters as high schoolers, offering all-new stories that expand the world from what is featured in the animated content.

“We are thrilled to be working with longtime partner Random House on a book series that will dive further into the stories of this exciting new franchise,” says Karen McTier, executive vice president, WBCP. “Lisa Yee is a gifted storyteller who will take the relatable world of DC Super Hero Girls from the pages and into the imaginations of young fans and readers everywhere.”
