I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest blog review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
As soon as Jaina Thatch reached out to tell me about her gorgeous book, I knew it was a book I wanted to read with my daughter. I’m so excited to share this one with you today and I have FIVE (!) autographed copies to give away!
Synopsis:
Author Jaina Thatch was inspired by her daughter’s tenacious spirit and love of Super Hero clothing that made her daughter feel strong and beautiful. If you’re raising a strong willed and determined daughter, this book is for you! Empowering and validating little girls that your authentic true beauty comes from within and from using your Super Powerful mind. By doing that, you can achieve and do/be anything that you put your mind to!
My Thoughts:
(Disclaimer: I will never post spoilers in my reviews HOWEVER the comment section is completely fair game to discuss any and all specifics including spoilers)
Oh this book is beautiful. I love a good rhyming book and the rhyming in this book flows so nicely.
The illustrations are gorgeous! Bright colors and special details combine to create such beautiful additions to this lovely story.
Aside from the fantastic rhyming and beautiful illustrations, the most wonderful part of this book is the important message that it sends. Children can be anything they choose and using their imaginations can lead to amazing results. The back of the book tells that “authentic, true beauty comes from within”… I just love this book and the beautiful messages that it sends.
A quote from within the pages that really spoke to me was, “My super power is my mind.” If all children (and even adults) truly believed this, how wonderful would our world be???
My absolute favorite part of the book is the last page where there is a space for the reader to draw themselves as a superhero and to describe the super powers that they possess. My daughter absolutely loved doing this:
This book would make such a fantastic gift for the holidays for any child. Teachers, this would be such a wonderful addition to your classroom library! The discussions this book could spark both at home and at school would be so amazing. I speak from experience…after reading this book, my kids and I had such a wonderful conversation! If you have a special child in any aspect of your life, this book would make such a beautiful present.

This book isn’t just for girls! My husband and my son also loved reading it:
Beautiful book, beautiful author…

A Conversation with Jaina Thatch, In Her Own Words:
How did you create the idea for your book?
Even though I am a Mom of boys, my perception of the world changed when I was expecting my daughter. I really thought hard about who I was as a woman, the expectations on myself as a woman and mom, who I would want her to be and the positive female role models that I would want for her to emulate.
What audience would be most interested in your book?
My audience is geared toward the ages of 3-6, but the message of the book and the conversation elicited from the message of the book is ageless, genderless and universal. Our authenticity is our superpower. And if you believe in yourself, your kind to yourself and kind to your friends, then your dreams will come true.
Where can your book be purchased?
An autographed copy of my book can be purchased on my website at www.jainathatch.com. My Superhero Mind is also available on Barnes and Noble.com, and Amazon.com

I believe that every child is a superhero. All of their wonderful traits and characteristics, are their superpowers. You just have to believe, that the best part of being you is you!

I would LOVE to bring this book to my first grade classroom! Social Emotional learning has become just as important as teaching reading and writing in my classroom. I use read alouds for just about every lesson I teach. What an amazing mentor text this would be for a lesson and class circle (discussion) about doing anything you set your mind to, being who you are, perseverance, kindness, and believing in ourselves. ❤️
