I Just Want to Be Super!

The story shows how imagination can transform everything that a kid does in an ordinary day, making even getting dressed or putting away the dishes “super.” It also shows how imagination can help us to understand other points of view. In this case, the boy, Nino, uses his imagination to understand the impact of his actions on others. The story has lots of layers that people will be able to read in different ways. And wow for the illustrations, which are pretty stunning.

A great story of imagination, how to have fun, and how to be super. Kept my kids entertained and interested. My 3 year old immediately wanted to have it read to him again! When asked what they liked best, my daughter loved the cat and my son the idea of being a superhero.

Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for the chance to read this book.

This was a cute little book. My son enjoyed it. The takeaway from the story for me was little boys are indeed super and can do so much 😊 The illustrations in this book are adorable. The story kept my ten month old interested 🤗

Vibrant illustrations (and I mean very vibrant and colorful) catch the reader’s eye, along with an adventurous story that a wide range of readers can enjoy. Nicely done!

This cute book is one of the most active picture books I have ever read. I find this book to be really stimulating and effective seeing it as an effort to encourage the kids to have an active imagination as well as a way to tell them when to not go overboard with it. I love how the illustrations make this book so interesting and lively! The cat is so adorable. And the family seems amazing. I appreciate the fact that while reading this book, I felt like the book is actually written by a child and not from an adult's perspective. I really, really appreciate this. Somehow most of the picture books seem like they are written by adults in a way how we adults imagine the world of kids may be. So this particular book stands out.

Thank you #NetGalley for the copy of this book #IJustWanttobeSuper!

Thank you NetGalley and the publisher for this book. I just read it to my son and he thought it was SUPER funny! A quick read like this is my go to for short stories!

Cute story about how one can be super doing everyday things and how when things aren't the way you want, there are other options. The illustrations were fun and colorful. I think I'll definitely be able to incorporate this into storytimes.

Very cute picture book about a boy who finds a mask that gives him super powers. With it he learns that, as we all know, with great power comes great responsibility.
