This was purchased for my six year old son who really likes super hero comic books. My 12 year old daughter loved it, she thought it was very funny. My son liked it a lot too. I liked that the the super heroes are kids. I've been searching for a while for a comic that was apropriate for a child. I had ordered a subscription to Marvel Adventures, which was advertised to be for ages was 6 to 12, but I hated the trashy way women were potrayed in the drawings. I was very happy to find these books. Gee, comics appropriate for children....what a novel idea. :)
I bought this comic as a birthday present for my 10-year old nephew so I'm well aware I'm not the intended target audience. Nonetheless, I thought the artwork was cute so I took a crack at reading it before I wrapped it up.The premises is about the sidekicks of DC superheroes as little children. I'm not very familiar with DC's lineup so there are a lot of jokes I probably missed not knowing a lot about the characters. And some of the jokes are, well...not that sophisticated. Still, it's target audience is probably preteens and younger and I think my preteen nephews have pretty basic humor so I imagine its target audience would probably find the jokes hilarious. The comic comprises of little stories, most of which don't really link up to each other. But I imagine that's fine since I doubt little kids are ready for major story-arcs. Each story is only about 2-4 pages long so I imagine it's great for kids with no attention span.The artwork, again, is very cute and it's a nice introduction to comic book for young children. The pages are flimsier than most comic books intended for adults. But the colors are vibrant and the binding looks nice. I'll have to check with my nephew to see what he thinks of it the next time I see him.
Tiny Titans is a perfect read for all ages. It's goofy and awesome and chock full of dc characters, only a little different then you might remember them!The Art and Writing Team of Art Balthazar and Franco are a match made in geek heaven, as they've been working together for years already with Patrick The Wolf-Boy, Gorilla Gorilla (featured in Disney Adventures)and many others.This book is perfect to get for kids of all ages,and heck, I'm 21 years old and it still makes me smile and chuckle. I cannot recommend this enough! Buy 10 copies! hand them out to friends!AWWWW YEAH TITANS!!
My 6 year old girl loves it. It was a great way to open the door to reading more. I think she might have thought reading was just some boring thing she had to do for school, but she brings this comic book in the car and in and around the house. She's now just reading stuff we have at the house (the "readers") for fun. We tried other comic books, but the humor was too adult. Now, I've got to read up on super heroes (not a bad thing). I'm getting asked questions like, "Who is Beast Boy's mommy?" LOL. Too fun.
I bought this and some of the others to help encourage my 6 year old to read. He loves superheros and of course TEEN TITANS GO! While the words are somewhat on par with a K/1st grade reading level the actual font was kind of small and the comic style made it hard for him to read. I think when he gets a little bit more use to reading these might work for him but right now they are too much. I thought the stories were super cute though and as an adult obviously I didn't have any problems reading and following along with the comic style. Maybe not for super beginner readers but slight more advanced.
My 6 year old LOVES this book! I purchased it bc the kids love to read, and we are a comic book kind of family as well, but I wanted my little one to get into reading like the rest of us. I picked this one because he loves Teen Titans and thought he might like this one bc they were based around the same age as him. I got this package yesterday, and he read it in ONE NIGHT!!! My SIX year old!! This humorous book makes my whole heart smile and I will be collecting this series for him now! I am one happy mamma!!!
this is a great book for a six year-old. Nothing too scary or violent. My son likes the young superheroes. He spent hours with this book when he first got it and still manages to find some time for it on most days. Good color. Nice messages. Highly recommended.
I enjoyed this very much. I wish that they had more references to adult characters though. All in all good read if you need a break from the other awesome DC titles that are out there that have a more seriois feel. Im seeing a trend with all the kid versions of comic book characters coming out. Marvel i think has something similar. Again it was a nice way to pass time.
