Format:Paperback
This item arrived in good condition and is exactly what I expected. The reading level is great for my 6 year old who was getting bored with the books coming back from school. However, I had to wait a couple of weeks before I received them to the extent that I was worried they weren't coming!

Great new movie book for readers!
1 April 2007
Format:Paperback
This is a great little book. It's fabulous for early readers excited about the new Spiderman movie coming out. My little one learned to read it and is having a ball with all the new villains introduced in this book. Each of the main characters are introduced, then the villains. But, Spiderman is portrayed as a hero and encourages kids to be a hero too. Well loved (we've read it nightly over and over again for a week!) and highly recommended!

Two boys' review: A poor choice for little Spidey fans
2 Dec 2008
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Movie tie-in books like this are like chewing gum. They lose their flavor quickly.
My sons, ages 6 and 4, are die-hard Spider-man fans. However, there aren't many superhero books my sons can read and enjoy that are age appropriate. Most comic books are written for teenage and adult audiences. And I don't let my sons watch the PG or PG-13 rated superhero movies (Spider-Man, X-Men, Fantastic Four).
I bought this book hoping it would feed their interest in an age-appropriate format. I now wish I had my money back.
Negatives:
The book is a narrative not a story. The author, Harry Lime, introduces us to Spider-Man, Sandman, Venom and the New Goblin but the characters do not interact.
Steven Gordon's illustrations are horrible. With so many comic book artists available I can't understand why the book looks like an insurance pamphlet.
------------------
Here's a list of Spider-Man books I recommend instead:
Spider-Man: The Amazing Story (Level 1 Beginning to Read)
Spider-Man's Worst Enemies (Level 2 Beginning to Read Alone)
The Story of Spider-Man (Level 4: Proficient Reader)
Spider-Man's Amazing Powers (Level 4: Proficient Reader)

good hero/villian book

Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is a great book for Spiderman fans. My four year old is obsessed with good guys and bad guys so this book was perfect. Nice explanation of heros and villians.
