Following fast on the cape of Bedtime for Batman (2016) comes an
exciting tale that puts a little boy's daytime activities into
heroic context. Utilizing dramatic, stylized art reminiscent of
Superman comics, this story depicts a young African American boy
going through the challenges of the morning, juxtaposing his daily
routine with panels and facing pages that show mild-mannered Clark
Kent transforming into his superhero persona.-- "Booklist

Just like superman, a young boy prepares for the day in a
systematic way -- go potty (duty calls), get dressed (reveal secret
uniform), eat breakfast (gather strength), and so forth. This would
be a great book to read to remind kids what they need to do each
morning.-- "Imagination Soup"
The hero of this book isn't Superman, but a little boy waking up
and getting dressed for school. Kids (and parents) who have a hard
time getting going in the mornings will love the recognition that
some days just getting out of bed is a heroic feat. . . .It's hard
to resist the joy of starting a new day that author Michael Dahl
and artist Omar Lozano put in the pages of Good Morning, Superman.
Pick it up anytime your family's day needs a superpowered boost.--

This quick read includes a Morning Checklist for little readers who
may forget a thing or two in their morning routines. Little ones
that adore the Last Son of Krypton will go gaga for this quickly
paced, brightly colored, action-packed read. An excellent resource
for parents attempting to wrangle their little superheroes' powers
for good.-- "Kirkus Reviews"
Young readers will chuckle, as will their caregivers, when the
child has to call upon his courage to face his greatest weakness:
kryptonite green toothpaste. Illustrations that appear to be
digitally created are full of movement and zest, matching the
chipper tone of this breezy text. Consider for purchase in
collections with heavily trafficked preschool picture books that
introduce concepts and tasks. Young superhero lovers will also
enjoy this imaginative take on a typical morning routine.-- "School
