This review is from: Never Wear a Cape! And Other Tips for Supers (The Incredibles Chapter Book) (Paperback)

This humorous little book is a nice addition to your Incredibles library. Written as a series of tips for Supers (superheroes), from the main man himself, Mr. Incredible, this books tells you everything the budding Super needs to know, from using your Super power, through keeping undercover, to defeating villains.

Yes, as you can plainly see, this is a fun book, one that is sure to please any young Incredibles fan. Heck, my eleven-year-old son devoured this book, and loved it. He and I both highly recommend this book to you.

This review is from: Never Wear a Cape! And Other Tips for Supers (The Incredibles Chapter Book) (Paperback)

NEVER WEAR A CAPE! is a clever marketing book from the folks at Disney and Pixar that is somewhat entertaining and will encourage reluctant readers who are fans of THE INCREDIBLES to start reading. The book is supposedly written by Mr. Incredible as told to Jasmine Jones. The book is supposed to be a lengthy pamphlet filled with advice for new superheroes who are taking part in the "Return of the Supers." Some of the chapters in the book include "History of the Supers," "Super Career Choices," "Family," "Undercover," "Super Suits," and "Villains of the New School." Almost every page in the book includes some sort of illustration. Some are drawings taken from scenes in THE INCREDIBLES movie, but many are new. The book is categorized as being a "humor" book and for most older children and adults, the book is quite funny. However, very young children who are caught up in becoming a superhero will enjoy reading the book and incorporating the tips enclosed into their lives as a superhero. The book is fairly easy to read and students in the 2nd grade and above shouldn't have any trouble reading it. Even though the book is part of the Disney marketing machine, it is humorous and entertaining enough that it could help certain reluctant readers have a desire to read it. Also, since it's THE INCREDIBLES, it's a little above the par for most mass-marketing literary merchandise.
