Praise for this book
Beavers' art is visually striking and vibrantly hued, perfect for keeping young eyes glued to each page. Dahl's economical text is cadenced with a gentle lilt, just right for a bedtime read-aloud. Young fans of the caped crusader will delight in spying their favorite characters. In the already-overstuffed bedtime-book market, this is certainly a niche read, but it hits its mark well, delivering fun without darkness. . . .This should send Dark Knight fans flying to the Batcave--or the bedroom.-- "Kirkus Reviews"
The dramatic, brightly saturated illustrations are satisfyingly reminiscent in style of the graphic novels for older Batman devotees. . . .While children may not buy bedtime as a "great adventure," they are likely to settle down to absorb this fun tale featuring their favorite character. Meanwhile, parents will appreciate the good-humored brevity that leads efficiently to lights out. The youngest Batman lovers and their parents will snap this title off library shelves faster than you can say "dynamic duo."-- "School Library Journal"
The story is calming, even for a Batman adventure. Author Michael Dahl not only is an expert at bedtime stories, he's obviously a fan of the DC universe, and it shows in this sweet and simple tale. If you're on your 1939th reading of Goodnight Moon and you're ready to add a little bit of action to your kids' bedtime story, pick up Bedtime for Batman. You'll love it just as much as they will.-- "GeekMom"
