"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

"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
