The only thing to do is replace it unless it's a hairline crack, which may still result in a larger crack over time, especially after each stringing.

there are 3 different head sizes of rackets. here is an explanation of the different sizes from http://www.dummies.com/how-to/content/choosing-a-tennis-racquet.html

Over-sized: Beginners really like the over-sized and even jumbo frames, which offer between 100 and a whopping 140 square inches of strung surface. Such frames give you a larger sweet spot simply because the hitting surface is bigger, and they allow you to hit the ball farther from the heart of the sweet spot and still make a good shot.

Mid-sized: These racquet heads range from 85 to 100 square inches. Most pro players use frames on the low side of mid-sized - between 85 and 95 square inches. Most recreational players gravitate to the high side of mid-sized - between 95 and 100 square inches. Mid-size racquets offer a great compromise between a larger strung surface and sweet spot and a maneuverable frame that lets you generate good racquet speed when you swing.

Standard-sized heads: Ranging from 80 to 85 square inches, standard-size heads are now obsolete. They give you a smaller strung surface and sweet spot, making it more difficult to produce crisp, clean shots.

It is said to be one of the lightest racquets ever made! My daughter got one last week and she adores it. Shes not so strong as shes quite young but this one she can swing easily.

Boom Bats are great. They are plastic tennis rackets but with a special plastic material instead of the net and they make a wonderful sound whenever the ball hits the bat.
Great fun for kids and grown ups!
