Rocket Raccoon postpones tree-like alien Groot's bedtime for more space adventures alongside fellow Marvel superheroes. A tranquil rhyming text faces the action-packed, cartoonish illustrations. Including cameos for Marvel enthusiasts while presenting the violence in a kid-friendly manner (e.g., a high-tech slingshot stands in for Rocket's signature firearms), this energetic if gimmicky book should charm young superhero fans.
