I bought this for my Kindergartener after his little kid cutesy one's zipper broke after less than a week of use.  This is a quality, adult sized backpack, and it's huge on him, but that's not the backpack's fault, it's mine for ordering an adult sized one for a small kid.  My child still loves it (he picked it out himself), and doesn't care if it is over large.  The one thing that I wish it had that it doesn't is one of those clips that buckle the straps across the chest, so keeps the straps from slipping off the shoulders.  That would be a great feature to assist in its being too large.  Otherwise, it is a real quality backpack, and I can easily recommend.
