My two-year-old son loves this book--he is a huge Batman and Superman fan. I like it because the text is short, simple and fast-paced. The DC Super Friends brand is light and fun and never dark or overly violent, so Big Heroes is a great way to introduce children to these classic heroes. In the story, the Super Friends get shrunk to the size of ants, but they still save the day, so the message is that you don't have to be big to be a hero--something kids love to hear.
Got this for my little guy thats obsessed with Superman. I really enjoy the fact that the book is not overly violent and keeps within the theme of superheroes fighting bad guys. He really enjoys the story and the construct of the actual book has surprising held up after several months of use.
We gave this as a gift for a 3-yr old little boy who loves super heroes, and it was well received. The story wasn't quite as interesting (to me) as I would have hoped - it was short, and fast paced, almost to the point being disjointed, but I didn't exactly expect a literary masterpiece for a super hero book. It is nice little book for the price. I wouldn't necessarily call it durable as some other reviewers suggested, as the binding did seem like it could have issues with overzealous handling.
This is by far my son's favorite of all Super Friends stories. He enjoys watching the heroes "Save the Day!". this is about Lex Luthor and being able to make a difference no matter what size you are. The story of cheesy but fun for kids.
I purchased this Big Heroes book for my son for Easter since he is obsessed with super heroes right now! It's a cute little story that isn't scary. It's about teamwork which is great for the little ones to read. It has all the big DC super heroes in the book. Superman, Batman, The Flash, The Green Lantern and more! It's the perfect length for bedtime or a story before nap! The pictures are eye catching, flashy and colorful. This is a great book for little readers!
Why i think these are seconds: The binding was not glued down on one corner, tempting for youngster to grab and rip and the back cover didn't extend to completely cover the pages. Rather expensive for the quality.
This was a great introduction to the popular superheros for my four-year-old son. He loves the idea of Batman and superheros, but most superhero stuff seems to be a bit dark and violent for his age. It's not violent, is simple enough for him to understand, and has a great vintage-vibe. We're very happy with this book! We also bought the Superman and the Batman Golden Books and my son loves them all!
My son loves these books and asks me to read them several times a day. These type of books are an easy way to get young kids interested in learning their letters and starting to read.They are well made and have a hard cardboard cover.
