good comic books for kids
By Li Ximeng
I bought it for my boss’ 4yr old son. In the beginning I worry it will be too much words in it instead of pics, but actually it totally out of my expectations!When you open the book, it all with color pics with few words, and the Sprider man “pop up” in front of you sometimes, and it totally met the younger age kids’ needs! Both my boss and his son love the book! So do I. I would highly recommend the book to everyone who would like to buy it as gift for a young kid.

Great Book!
By M. McNerney
This is a great pop-up book! I had none of the problems listed by a previous reviewer. The book arrived in mint condition, and the pop-ups opened and closed without any problems. I am taking this book to my fourth grade class. I know the kids will love it! I’m looking forward to future Marvel pop-up books!
