This review is from: Disney's Toy Story Little Green Army Men: Little Green Army Men (Toy Story 2) (Hardcover)

"Little Green Army Men" is a short children's book that retells a scene from the popular Disney film "Toy Story." Just in case you aren't familiar with that animated fantasy, "Toy Story" takes place in a suburban neighborhood where children's toys have the ability to come to life.

The text of this particular book has been adapted by Nancy Parent. "Little Green..." tells how the book's title characters, led by their toy sergeant, go on a "recon" mission to find out what new toys will be joining their owner's collection.

The book's simple text is well complemented by large full-color illustrations taken from the film itself. But the really fun thing about "Little Green..." is the fact that attached to the book is a clear plastic bubble containing seven little green army men, just like those portrayed in the film. Each little soldier is a nicely detailed, three-dimensional toy.

I suppose that some parents will hesitate to give their kids a toy that depicts firearms--the little soldiers are armed with a variety of weapons. But that's a choice each parent must make. Personally, I find "Little Green Army Men" to be a delightful complement to one of the best children's films of the 1990s. And for those adults (like myself) who played with our own little green army men as children, this interactive book will bring back some fond memories.
