Great Children’s Books for Moms and Dads

Books for Moms and Dads

Disney-Hyperion sent me a whole mess of great books for free to read and review. #ad This video is a preview of all of them as well as when they come out for sale.

The books i cute and funny with many other Marvel Super Heroes making cameos. Take a look at the video and then below that I have a list of each book and how to buy or pre-order them on amazon.com (with my affiliate links and prices lower than what I tell you in the video.)
