"From sun-soaked morning . . . / . . . until moonlit night . . . / a super hero soars! / FWOOSH!!" With these words, our preschool protagonist begins her race to her foe: bedtime. Each spread pairs an image of an adult Supergirl soaring and saving the day in her red cape, punching flaming asteroids with her "POW!-WHAM!-BOOM!" fists, alongside a companion image of our tiny tot in a Supergirl T-shirt, going through her bedtime ritual with Mommy: sharing a book and a snuggle before courageously facing the dark to rest, and then soar another day. The words are sparse but pack a punch, and the images are colorful and action-packed, making this book ke the rest of this superhero series el like a perfect introductory graphic novel for picture-book readers. A guaranteed bedtime favorite for your little supersleeper, and as admirably diverse as the rest of the series, this promises to be every bit as popular as its predecessors.

Featuring racially inclusive casts, these celebrations of preschool independence and playful creativity will delight the youngest superhero fans. "Be a Star" and "Sweet Dreams" checklists included.
