Story/Spoilers
Superman and Quik Bunny in “Quik Thinking”, team up not to fight the Weather Wizard. The story starts with Superman finding a flood coming out of nowhere. Meanwhile, the Quik Bunny and the Quik Qlub (kids that love Nesquik) building a multi-story tree house, which the inside of which is metal. They turn a television and see what Superman is doing. The Quik Bunny convinces the Quik Qlub to aid Superman. The Quik Qlub turns into a rocket-helicopter hybrid and flies off to Superman. It turns the flood was caused the villain, weather-controlling Weather Wizard. The Quik Qlub put info into computers and figure out the Weather Wizard was behind the flood. They use a microphone to tell this to Superman. Weather Wizard froze ice around Superman and ran away. The Quik Qlub use a mechanical hand in their club to grab the ice cube letting Superman unfreeze himself. The Quik Qlub figure out Weather Wizard went to Washington DC. Despite Superman telling them not to, the Quik Qlub follow him to DC and turn the club house into a hot air balloon. The Weather Wizard unleashed a tornado to cause chaos, which according to Superman will make him president. The Quik Qlub go into the tornado’s eye. The Quik Bunny distract the Weather Wizard thus ending the tornado. Weather Wizard, Superman and the Quik Qlub (now the tree house is a jet) go to Egypt. Weather Wizard caused a snowstorm near a pyramid. Superman is being vexed by a mummy, which the Quik Bunny easily defeats. Then Superman rips the pyramid apart to find Weather Wizard. The kids accidentally distract Superman thus allowing Weather Wizard to go to China and loudly saying so. Superman and Quik Qlub fly to China only to be attacked a hailstorm. The club house turns into a boat and land in a river. Via a radio, the Quik Qlub discover Superman and Weather Wizard is at the Great Wall. The Quik Bunny (via drinking Quik chocolate milk) gets an idea. The Weather Wizard attacks via lightning what he thought was the Quick Bunny, but it was a metal statue the deflect the bolt and knocked out the Weather Wizard.

The storyline incorporates several puzzles that the reader can solve to help find and capture the Weather Wizard. This includes a jumble, mazes, connect the dots and more. Additionally, randomly inserted Nesquik product placement makes you thirsty for chocolate milk. Seriously!
