"The Story of Stan Lee is a fun glimpse into the life of this
famous comic writer. The author takes kids on a journey to learn
about how some of their favorite characters from the Marvel
Universe came to be. Sprinkled throughout the book are spaces for
kids to think about what they are reading and make connections to
their real life. For example, I thought the prompt asking the
reader to consider how people thought comics were bad for kids was
really informative and interesting. I know kids will have fun with
that! If you are looking for a biography for a graphic novel
lover--or actually anyone interested in a good story--check this
out!" --Tonya Leslie, author of The Story of Kamala Harris
"Filled with insightful info on one of the most recognized legends
in the world of comic books, The Story of Stan Lee is an
inspirational story for any young reader. And if you know any young
kids with creative aspirations, this book doubles as a colorful
guide for them to make their own way into the world of comics."
--George Carmona 3rd, artist, writer and a co-creator of the Access
Guide to the Black Comic Book Community
"This book manages to squeeze a universe of creativity into a
single volume, chronicling Stan Lee's humble origins to his
becoming the face of the comic book field. His work at Marvel
Comics and beyond shows what drive and imagination are capable of,
inspiring the next generation of creators." --Robert Greenberger,
DC Comics and Marvel Comics executive and co-writer of Stan Lee's
How to Write Comics
"This is a great resource for young readers and young people with
an interest in comics. Having been an art instructor in NYC public
schools, I recommend The Story Of Stan Lee to art instructors and
educators seeking to increase literacy in collaboration with art
programs." --Roy Anthony Morrison, art instructor and creative arts
therapist at School Of Visual Arts
