Reviews
PreS-Gr 1-Heroes, unite! Characters from the Marvel Universe populate this hefty board book from the beginning of the alphabet to the end. Each letter has its own dedicated spread and includes characters from Marvel stories whose names represent that letter. Within the spread is the letter itself on a separate, slightly smaller page that serves to divide the letter from its representative subjects. The letter is capitalized and partially cut out, serving at once to encourage the tactile experience of tracing the letter and to make the page easier to turn. Each surface is appealing to the touch, with a matte finish and rounded corners. This, coupled with the weight of the book (not unlike the block for which it is named), make it unique in the world of board books. Excellent illustrations include a significant number of familiar Marvel characters, focusing primarily on those who have been the subjects of major motion pictures in recent years. Fans of Marvel will be spellbound by the craftsmanship of this book: it will provide young readers with one of the most enjoyable alphabet experiences available in print. VERDICT This is the perfect novelty book for young superhero fans to learn the alphabet and immerse themselves in the Marvel universe. It is best suited to household libraries.-Mary Lanni, Denver Public Library
