Two boys' review: Introduce young kids to inventions with Green Lantern

The Green Lantern opens up a world of inventions and famous inventors to young minds. We recommend the DK Readers series. Our sons -- ages 5 and 4 -- really enjoy reading about superheroes, so we use that interest to introduce them to other topics (see my listmania list and other reviews). Each of these books offers several graphics on each page. The information is arranged in brief chapters with lots of USA Today-style sidebars. We also have the "I Can Read" books for young readers which we use for bedtime reading. The Level 4 books are more difficult and are better shared a few pages at a time. These make a great spring board for weekend science projects and activities. We also own: Aquaman's Guide to the Ocean The Flash's Book of Speed Incredible Hulk Book of Strength Batman's Guide to Crime & Detection
