REVIEW: IT’S NATIONAL SUPERHERO DAY!

4/28/2023

0 Comments

 
What better way to celebrate National Superhero Day than read a book about the origin of Wonder Woman in:  
​
​TITLE: A TRUE WONDER: THE COMIC BOOK HERO WHO CHANGED EVERYTHING
AUTHOR: Kirsten W. Larson
ILLUSTRATOR: Katy Wu
PUBLISHER: Clarion Books/2021
OPENING LINES: 
 
“As lovely as Aphrodite—as wise as Athena—with the speed of Mercury and the strength of Hercules—she is known only as Wonder Woman, but who she is, or whence she came, nobody knows!”
 
Until now!
Picture
This picture book about the origin of Wonder Woman is fabulous! Kirsten Larson tells the journey of how Wonder Woman came to be, how she was received by fans, how her character influenced the comic book industry, and how she became an inspiration for so many. Complementing Larson’s suspenseful text full of POW and WOW, are Katy Wu’s bright, bold illustrations done in comic book style. I think you’ll agree this book is truly wonderful!
