I thought this book would be an adventure featuring Captain America. Instead it is just a history of the Captain America character and an overview of how he fights for American justice. My 3 yo still loves it though. My husband and I just find the story a little strange.
Think this is a perfect intro to Captain America for my 4 year old son. No, it's not a story with plot lines, twists, character development and award winning writing as some have complained about in their reviews. Its a Little Golden Book with nice full page color graphics, easy words and its only 23 quick read pages which make it perfect for before bedtime.
My 4-year old is starting to get excited over super heroes. He's been playing the video games, playing with the toys... I thought "Why not get him a few books?". I wasn't expecting the greatest story ever told, but I should have started somewhere else.As to be expected, the physical quality of this Golden Book is great. It looks and feels the same as the ones I read when I was little and they're still holding up decades later. The story is a different matter. There is no story... its more of a history lesson on Captain America. My kid read it with me one time and he was done with it. I completely understand his disinterest since even I was having a hard time following where this book was trying to go. It ends up just being a mess of interesting tidbits about the hero.Stay away unless your kid would just like looking at the pictures, which are decent enough I guess.
really? Cap was endowed by a super beam? There is nothing wrong w/ original the super soldier serum origin. Personally i think it would be more relateable as an injection, no different then getting a shot at the doctor. If cap can do it you can do it.
Cute story, easy to read for the younger set, easy to read to the youngest set! I bought this to go with the 12" Titan Captain America figure, for my 3 year old. He's sandwiched between two girls, so he was in need of some super-hero books and toys to get away from all the princess stuff. He LOVES this book and the others in the series. Marvel was SMART to partner with Little Golden Book on this one.
This book just arrived yesterday, it is a Christmas gift for a grandson. I have always bought Golden Books, which is why I purchased this one, but I must add that I am a little disappointed in the way the book is made. It doesn't seem to be as sturdy as my older Golden Books, and it is cut funny. The front isn't even with the back.
This book was perfect for my 6 year old grandson to learn who Captain America is. It contained no violence but showed what a hero can do. A little fixtion doesn't hurt as ling as he kniws it is fiction.
Through this book, my three year son developed a love for Captain America that I'm sure will last a lifetime. It comes with the quality I have come to expect from Little Golden Books. Slowly, we are collecting many of them. What a great purchase! Highly recommended!
