This note shows how Wonder Woman is affecting kids

Are your kids obsessed?

Wonder Woman hasn’t been out for long, but has already made a serious impact.

The film, a reboot of the superhero classic, has already broken box office records for a film by a female director and is the most tweeted-about film of 2017 so far, but it’s release has also had another effect.

A kindergarten teacher in the US got in touch with the film’s production company to share just how obsessed some of the kids there have become with Wonder Woman.

The film’s director Patty Jenkins shared the note on Twitter.

“Consider this your friendly reminder that if this movie completely changed the way these girls and boys thought about themselves in a week, imagine what the next generation will achieve if we give them more movies like Wonder Woman,” wrote the kindergarten teacher.

The note also struck a chord with the film’s star, Gal Gadot, who tweeted the following.
