Reach for this book when your child views bedtime as a battle to be won or a chore to be avoided. It is an ideal tool for children who have high energy at night or who express anxiety about the dark, as it reframes the transition to sleep as a heroic feat requiring specialized skills. The story follows a young girl and the iconic Supergirl in parallel narratives. While Supergirl uses her powers to track down a cosmic villain, the girl uses her own 'super' traits, like bravery and patience, to navigate her nighttime routine and eventually find rest. It is a gentle but empowering read for preschoolers and early elementary students. By equating the act of going to sleep with the discipline of a superhero, the book helps normalize the difficulty of settling down while providing a sense of security and accomplishment.
