Superhero ABC - Bob McLeod2009 Monarch Award Nominee
HarperCollins
ISBN: 0-06-074514-2
My rating: 5 out of 5
When I was a kid, I fell in love with superheroes and if this book had been around then, I would have tried my best to get it. I love this book. Using superheroes to help kids learn their ABCs is a fantastic idea.
The illustrations in this book are excellent and each hero looks like they could actually have their own comic or TV show. I really enjoyed the way McLeod makes each hero unique-looking, and not just look like the same person with a different letter of the alphabet sewn to his/her chest. I like how not only there is a different superhero for each letter (ie: Letter C = Captain Cloud), but the page is full of other words describing the hero all beginning with the same letter as the hero.
"Superhero ABC" is a fun book that is definitely recommended for all libraries.
