I Can Be a Superhero During a Lockdown

(Pre-K & Up) Listen to your teacher, Be quiet as a mouse and Stay still as a statue.

These are the important Superhero jobs children will learn inside the gentle and engaging book I Can Be A Superhero During A Lockdown.

Everyone has a Superhero inside waiting to be discovered... learn how to discover yours

Created for young children of any ability, the book I Can Be A Superhero During A Lockdown was written by a Certified Child Life Specialist and concerned mother of two in search of a child-friendly and developmentally appropriate book for her own young son. I Can Be A Superhero During A Lockdown decreases anxiety through full-color illustrations, easy-to-understand explanations, and multiple situational examples. A coloring sheet is also included to encourage further engagement and help readers remember tasks through repetition. I Can Be A Superhero During A Lockdown is written in a positive, self-affirming, first-person account, which helps children safely practice and visualize a positive ending to a potentially difficult and frightening situation.

When I follow the directions of my teacher, or the adult in charge, keep myself quiet, and stay still in my hiding spot, I make sure that we can all hide safely until the Lockdown is over. When I do my jobs, I help others by keeping myself and everyone else safe. When I do my jobs, I am a Superhero.

Anyone who lives with or works with children will find value in the relatable and reassuring methods inside.

I know these jobs will not be easy for me and I will have to work very hard. That is why doing these jobs makes me a Superhero. Superheroes don't have easy jobs, but I know that I can do it.



Some people don't believe in Superheroes. They just haven't met you yet
