Toni the Superhero is an adorable children's book about a child. Toni is a superhero who enjoys activities like reading and running. The rest of the book talks about activities that Toni enjoys. All the activities are normal things that children enjoy. It ends with the simple statement that Toni is Terrific. Each page has a beautiful picture that matches the story. It is a simple story that uses simple language, which is perfect for new readers.

I read this book with my 5-year-old son, and he really enjoyed it. The pictures captured his attention with bright colors and movement. My son liked that Toni talked about things that he loves to do too. Every child in the book looks a little different, and the animals are very cute. I love that Toni had some fun facial expressions when he was cleaning.

I don't have anything that I dislike about the book, but I do think that adding more inclusive children would be nice. You can add a child in a wheelchair or something similar. I don't think that makes the book bad, but I do think it would have made a very cute book slightly better. I do appreciate that each child looked different.

I rate Toni the Superhero 5 out of 5 stars. The story was cute, simple, and relatable for young children. Those are all great qualities for a children's book. I didn't see any errors. Some of the words look out of place in the online version, but they make sense when you think about how the book would be printed. There are other reviews saying that there are alignment issues, but I don't think they would be issues if the book was in printed form. Since it is a children's book, I assume the format was designed with printing in mind.
