Ages 7+Source checked

Why this age? Cartoon peril, characters in danger in space, explosions, frightening accidents, and an asteroid threatening a city may worry younger children. Family conflict resolves positively, with no reported sexual content or strong language. This is guidance, not a safety guarantee; reading level and family context may differ.
