Super Why: Destroyer Of Worlds!!














Our oldest son, now three, has recently become a big fan of the PBS reading cartoon, "Super Why". To the point where much of his play time has been spent taking his stuffed animals and flying them around the room shouting things like, "the power to read!" and "Super Why to the rescue!"

There are two things, aside from Truth, that I'd be thrilled if my boys grew up loving: Reading, and Superheroes. So I wasn't about to miss the chance to get our boy his very first "action figures". Sure, the ones we found were small plush toys on clearance, so collectors wouldn't call them "action figures". But given that he still likes to handle them pretty rough while playing, I consider them "age appropriate action figures".

And lest you think that "The Super Readers" don't count as superheroes, consider this: This is a team of four people who can change reality itself... just by spelling stuff!

Darkseid? The Anti-Monitor? One solution for "Super Why". Spelled D-E-A-D! Fight's over!
