Digimon Power

Summary: I'm a Big Digimon fan
Review: I read Schlesinger's first two Pokemon books and enjoyed them and their unusual and entertaining style, so, as I am a huge Digimon fan, I bought this book and thought I would enjoy it even more. I was sadly wrong. Firstly, the book isn't devoted entirely to Digimon. It includes a lot of info about Dragonball Z and other totally unrelated animes, leaving not a lot to say about Digimon. He says very little about digimon, and some of what he says is obviously unresearched. Other than that it's info you could find by watching a single episode. I doubt he watched too much more in writing this book. But more importantly, like so many other adults the author fails to see the real beauty, the truth behind Digimon. It's about growing up. In the show, the kids and their Digimon are linked. Their Digimon can only grow or evole into bigger stronger protectors, only when the kids learn something important about themselves, thereby, the kids grow into bigger stronger people. For example, in one episode a girl is afraid she will be unable to make her Crest of Love glow becuase she doesn't understand love, feeling she never felt it from her mother. At the conclusion of the episode she better understands her mother's actions when she protects her digimon from harm. When she understands she was acting just like her mom, her crest is able to glow, filled with her Love. The same applies to the other kids with their crests of Courage, Friendship, Knowledge, Hope, Sincerity, Reliability and Light. To get truly get the whole story, it's one of those where you have to see every episode. I wish I could contact the author to tell him about all this.

Summary: If I could, I'd rate it as a zero.
Review: My seven-year-old loved this book. Her favorite parts were the full names and bios of all the characters. The book contains quotes from kids about who their favorite Digis are. It also explains anime. From a parent's perspective, this book is really awful, but worth getting if you have a Digimaniac in the house.

Review: The way the book was written was unusual. Almost anyone can see that. Also, it would be better if there was more info on Digemon.

Rating:
Summary: An Un-Descriptive book.
Review: This book didn't have good tips on Digemon- at ALL. I didn't really like the intro to the book.

Rating:
Summary: its okay
Review: This book is all right. It is informative, funny and a little boring and stupid. I think it's worth reading. Probably not buying, but reading.
