One day, an alien orphan crash-lands on Earth and is adopted by a human couple, the Kents. Many years later, the baby inside that starship becomes Superman, protector of Earth!
"Both of these short books look appealing at the outset. They are designed as high interest, low vocabulary short stories. . . .Older readers who struggle tend to want to have books like their peers, but they need short stories that help them develop their reading ability. Younger readers like illustrations to assist them in understanding the tale. These stories by Michael Dahl are a good start." - CM: Canadian Review of Materials

"The illustrations are colorful and filled with action, sometimes carrying aspects of the story that don’t come through in the text. . . .While these books are not comics, the words and pictures do work well together to tell a complete story. Each one has questions and writing prompts at the end to encourage readers to think more deeply about the book. Reading one of these books is not unlike watching a Saturday morning cartoon in terms of complexity. They are filled with action and a bit of characterization, and the colorful illustrations really complete the package." - SLJ's Good Comics for Kids blog
