Another awesome female superhero to the rescue! I like this series of stories for the incorporation of the characters and importance life lessons. Keep them coming!
I absolutely love all the books like this I've read by Michael Dahl. I love how they have the superheroes and the kids as parallels and teaches kids about routes for nighttime and the morning and more! Anyone can be a superhero!
Art: mix comic and picture book-transition for young superhero lovers, poc children
Story: takes everyday lessons and adds superheroes to it
This is such a cool series, that I would have loved to have when I was a kid, or even when my daughter was a kid. I love the way this, and the others in the series, link the child's actions to those of their favorite super hero, in this case, Supergirl.
This is a bedtime book, but it goes over all the important things you must do to go to bed, and rest up for another day, just the way that Supergirl does.
I'm sure this is fun for kids to read, or have read to them, and even parents won't mind it.
Recommended for home libraries, as another arsenal in the books to read to go to sleep to.
Thanks to Netgalley for making this book available for an honest review.
I have enjoyed all of the books in this series, and was excited to see our favorite Supergirl starring in the newest installment! My little one has the Supergirl Itty Bitty so naturally we had fun making her fly around while we read this book. It was delightful as always and we especially love the details in the pictures - from the toys on the bed (Wonder Woman and their sidekicks!) to the bedtime story they were reading (The Hobbit!). However, I felt like the others in the series did a better job of matching what the superhero was doing with what the child was doing, while in this case it was more of the opposite - Supergirl was off doing incredible things in the daytime, and the child was getting ready for bed with little to no relation in their actions. But I still thoroughly enjoyed the main messages - the calming bedtime routine, and about being brave and dreaming big!
This is another cute bedtime story for those superhero fans, especially the girls. This is the fourth DC superhero book by Michael Dahl and they all are great reads. Each book features a different Superhero as well as main character. They are also inclusive of all ethnicities. This one shows a young girl mimicking the actions of Supergirl. It also shows her getting ready for bed after a day of saving the world. I like that it stresses the importance of rest to rejuvenate the body for the next day's adventures. The illustrations are large, colourful and detailed. The split page showing Supergirl and the young girl show how anyone can be a superhero. This could easily become a favourite story anytime of day but especially at bedtime. A great book for any and all family libraries with children or grandchildren.
I'm a fan and have read previous Lozano titles. This one is no different. It shows our young Supergirl getting ready for bed after a long day of saving the world. I love that these books encourage young children to dream big. The message is always sweet and encouraging. The sweet dreams checklist is adorable at the end. The illustrations are perfection and the action they depict is sure to draw young readers in.
I enjoyed this book, the tick list at the back for children to check is great too. The images are brilliant, sharp and bright and I can see it being a firm favourite for any fans of Supergirl, Wonder Women alongside other super heroes
I loved Dahl's previous work and Sweet Dreams, Supergirl was no exception. My kids and I loved the split page between super girl and child that allowed a showcase of how everyday children can be like superheros too.
I have 2 daughters who are HUGE fans of Supergirl and Wonder Woman so reading this to them was a no brainer.
I liked how the story started off with the girl essentially ‘acting out’ or mimicking the actions of Supergirl because I often let my girls do something similar when we first read together at night as I find it helps give them that opportunity to release one last bit of energy before settling down. This is a great book to let your kid be a part of especially as the story encourages them to rest and explains why they need to so they can be a hero the next day – a great reason to give your kid who doesn’t want to sleep!
As a mother I liked the mother/daughter theme in the story and it helped me point out again the importance of family. The story and art work together very well to show the dichotomy between day and night which reinforces that idea of now it’s bedtime and you need to rest.
If you have a DC fan you’ll want to pick up this really cute story to help encourage your young one for the need to recharge so they can be a Super Hero too. If you haven’t checked it out Michael Dahl has also written a great Batman version!
I love these books. I can not get enough. The book shows a child doing all the same things a superhero does. In this case, our little girl is getting ready to sleep and to dream, just like Supergirl does. Not only is the story done well, and the illustrations spot on, the team behind these titles tries to be inclusive of all people. You do not see the same kid in each book. So far we have had Batman, Wonder woman, Superman, and now Supergirl. Who’s next. I’m ready!
