Superheros and science what a fun way to get students interested in science. A fun adventurous book that shows students what scientific properties are used when investigating the powers of Superman. Easy to read and explain.

'Superman Science: The Real-World Science Behind Superman's Powers' by Agnieszka Bishup and Tammy Enz is a non-fiction look at the world around us.

Using Superman's core powers, the book is divided into four chapters called Soaring the Skies, Seeing Through Walls, Outrunning Bullets, and Stopping Runaway Trains. Within these chapters the reader will learn how science mimics these powers, how our own bodies work, and where these powers can be found in nature. There are various pictures of Superman, and lots of pictures of animals and inventions.

I like this approach to teaching science. Pick something kids are interested in, then show the real world counterparts where they can be found. It's the sort of non-fiction book I would have liked back in the 3rd or 4th grade.

I received a review copy of this ebook from Capstone Young Readers and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.

I found this found this book great. I like the layout of the pages and the information it contains. The facts included are fairly interesting and should entertain kids who read this.

Pop culture characters are a decent way to engage reluctant readers in non-fiction topics. It's easier to get a kid to consider all of the elements that go into flight, both by animals and humans, if you can compare it to how Superman flies. While there isn't a great deal of detail in this book, it does give the reader quick tastes of science in a wide variety of topics, hopefully enough to intrigue them and cause them to read a more in depth book on one of the specific topics. In addition to the wide variety of topics represented, there are a lot of images and the pages are designed in such away to move the eye along.

My 11 year old and I LOVED this book and highly recommend this fun filled book. I bought this for her friend :)

For children to be amazed at the technological innovations!
This fun and fantastic educational book teaches children about different technological advances by associating them with Superman's powers.
It contains historical information on the practical application of scientific knowledge that result in important advances for humanity. It is not only our children to learn and be well informed, increase their knowledge and culture, but they can visualize the importance of generating knowledge is a collective effort where many people have participated. Accordingly, we can also cultivate the values of cooperation, teamwork, perseverance, contribution, creative application of scientific knowledge, among others, at par the children are astonished at the practical and novel applications of science.
My gratitude to the Publisher and NetGalley for allowing me to review the book

I know several students who would devour this book.

In an age where it’s become increasingly important to instill more science and math in the younger generation this graphic novel could not have come at a better time. Kids LOVE super heroes so being able to use Superman to showcase the importance of science goes together as perfect as peanut butter and jelly. It’s an enlightening and enjoyable introduction to STEM for the young and young at heart.

The layout was well done with plenty of graphics to capture the visual attention while presenting the information in an educational yet easy to read manner. Using Superman and his powers to explain scientific concepts such as gravity, flight, etc really brings the information to life and makes what could be very dense, difficult to comprehend concepts manageable for a wide variety of age levels.

It’s a bit long for those on the younger end of the spectrum but it is thankfully broken up into smaller sections and topics so you could easily go over it in small bites to avoid attention overload. It is definitely one of those books that you can use in a wide variety of ways and return to time and again without boredom. It’s a must have for teachers and parents particularly if you then watch the latest Superman movies and apply the information from the book to what they see so you can increase the fun. Who says Hollywood can’t be educational? :-)

This book was cute. Mainly, it goes about explaining Superman's powers in the real world context. He flies so this is a simplified version of how planes work. He's strong here's world records of strength. Most connections are basic lessons of physical science, historical feats, and connections to different animals.

The layout and organization is really well done. It did feel overly dumbed down in places, but that may just be my AP brain. This is meant for younger children after all. Though, in a lot of places, it felt only tangentially connected to Superman. Superman was the jumping of point to learn the science, but he wants the main focus it felt.

I think the reason I didn't enjoy this book as much as I could have is I forgot it was targeted for much younger children, and so the fact that everything was so simplified and truncated made me feel patronized.

I think, if your 10-14, maybe a little younger or older depending on reading level/sciences you've taken, you'll like this. Especially if you like Superman or you like learning. But if your the kind if person who takes AP sciences courses, you won't get much out it.

I really like how this book was laid out. Both graphically and the way the information was presented. Just in the section on flight they break down gravity, if Superman’s cape is like a set of wings, and even how Superman is like, but different from a maple seed. The book is a little bit long, but things are broken up so nicely that the reader can stop and start when they want/need. Topics covered include flight, sight, speed, strength. I think this is a great book to get kids interested in STEM science, while appealing to their desire to be superheroes.

I've been trying like crazy to access this book since I got approved for review. I am not able to download it, even after multiple attempts. Do you offer another format? I understand if you do not. Thanks for the opportunity.
