This volume contains four separate stories within the same continuity that included some very cute dialogue between the members of the Power Pack, along with their new friend Wolverine. 

Logan is inarguably a very tough and sometimes violent character, but still interacts well with children and this comic is a good way to introduce him and his world to younger readers. I can't comment on whether the issue showing him as a child is an accurate portrayal since I haven't read much about his early life, but it fills the purpose of explaining that he's a lot older than someone new to his stories may expect. 

The Pack don't seem to be very popular characters currently, but they're very sweet even when one of their members, not naming names, is sometimes obnoxious. As a child I mainly wanted to focus on characters my own age, so I'm sure other children would love reading these and imagining themselves as a member of the Pack, who are featured here fighting bravely in spite of the adults who are understandably worried about their safety.
