Read this at work after checking it in. The pictures were cute and reminded me somewhat of Thomas the Tank Engine and the Little Engine that Could. Great message of being prepared and you can accomplish anything. Really want to get my nephew a copy of this!

Little Snowplow is not allowed to go out with the big trucks when the snow comes. He's been exercising to increase his size and strength. What he does not realize that his little size is needed when Dump Truck gets caught in the snow. Delightful and fun. Shows what you can do when you are determined...

4.5 Stars, Buy it I think I mainly picked this out because I love, love, love the cover. Another reason is that I love the Missle Mouse books and this writer/illustrator.

The Astonishing Secret of Awesome Man really is astonishing! This is a fantastic superhero book--great bold illustrations, the story told in language and in a style that the kids of today use, and there's action galore (as there should be in any decent superhero book).But Awesome Man does have a se...

If the only thing you do with this volume of Flight, or any volume of Flight, is to look at the art without reading a word, you'll be rewarded. As always, the eighth volume is filled with a wide variety of gorgeous and imaginative short comics. Picking a handful of favorites is hard, and almost poin...

“I can fly as high as a satellite and as straight as an arrow or through the time barrier and not get dizzy, or feel nauseous, or smash into things…except on purpose. When you are a superhero like me, sometimes you have to smash into things.”Awesome Man is very powerful. He can fight bad guys. He ca...

Familiar and predictable but entertaining story of a young boy imagining himself a superhero.
