Recent release “The Adventures of Kingston to the Rescue” from Page Publishing author S.

Philadelphia, PA, February 11, 2025 --(PR.com)-- S. Hughie Lassiter, who holds over ten years of classroom teaching experience as well as more than ten years of experience as a social worker, has completed his new book, “The Adventures of Kingston to the Rescue”: a charming story that centers around a young boy whose life is forever changed after receiving special powers. Now living the life of a secret superhero, Kingston does all he can to help others and remain brave even in the face of danger.
Born and raised in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, author S. Hughie Lassiter is currently a Special Education Teacher in Philadelphia where he teaches in a self-contained classroom for middle-school students. He graduated with a B.A. degree in Social Work from Cheyney State College and attended graduate school where he earned his Teaching Certification in Special Education from the Cheyney University of Pennsylvania. In 2004 he designed an educational program (Educate to Skate) where he combined the metrics of learning, physical exercise, and independence with skateboarding to teach math, geometry, and science to elementary and middle-school students. His educational program was successful in Philadelphia, Atlanta, and Los Angeles, and lasted over thirteen years.
“The statue began to speak, and in a deep voice it said, ‘Kingston, I knew your father. I gave your father powers. I want to give you powers too,’” writes Lassiter.
“Kingston couldn’t believe what just happened and what he just heard. He thought to himself, ‘Statues can’t talk, so this can’t be real’. But it was real. The Love Park statue did speak to Kingston and wanted to give him special powers—superhero powers—to save people in distress.
“The statue gave him powers and his DGK skateboard powers too.
“Kingston is a good little eight-year-old boy. He loves to skateboard like his father, Stevie Williams. He goes to school every day, does all his homework, does his chores around the house, and listens to his parents. Kingston realizes it’s the right thing to help others, and it makes him feel good.
“After Kingston’s first rescue of the little boy that was stuck up in a tree, he realizes that he does have superhero powers, that his DGK skateboard can do many amazing things, and that he is looking forward to rescuing many other people in distress. So, stay tuned for many exciting adventures of Kingston to the Rescue. Coming soon is the second book.”
