Stanley Lieber was just seventeen when he got his first job at Timely Comics in 1939. Since then, the man now known as Stan Lee has launched a comic book empire, made Marvel Comics a household name, and created iconic superheroes such as Iron Man, Spider-Man, and the Fantastic Four. Stan Lee is still dreaming up caped crusaders and masked vigilantes in his nineties. Who Is Stan Lee? tells the story of a New York City kid with a superhero-sized imagination.

I bought this book for my son to do a biography for a 4th grade assignment. The book is a great introduction into Stan Lee's life. The words and themes are age appropriate and easy to navigate. As I read along with him, I became a Stan Lee fan also. The overall messages we took from this book is that perseverance pays off and that doing what you love makes work fun!

My 7 year old son loves these books, as well as comics, so when he was assigned to write a book report on a biography, he was thrilled to find this book on Stan Lee. He was able to read it easily and was very entertained while doing so. I love that they make these books fun for kids to read and include illustrations. He did great on his book report!

My daughter collects the "Who Was" books but it seems as though my husband has taken just as much joy in hunting for them and reading them with her. He loves comic books and super heroes so it was perfect that I stumbled upon this one right before his birthday! He was very happy to recieve it especially since he never even knew it existed.

My third graders really enjoy the Who Was series. Many of students love comics, but few had any idea who Stan Lee was. They learned a lot from reading this book and there was always a waiting list for this particular title.

I did this review because I'm a big fan of Stan Lee and wanted to read this book so badly. My favorite parts are when they talk about the characters Stan created with some of his old buddies and about how he makes a cameo in every Marvel film. I'm not just doing this book review for readers or Stan Lee fans but also for Mr. Stan Lee cause he's my idol and favorite person. If your a Stan Lee fan this book is for you and more. I recommend this book for ages 7 and up. Excelsior!

For anyone who likes marvel this book is perfectWhen I saw this book I thought it was amazing and it was

I keep buying these books on my son's requests. He is 10 and he's been reading them for over 3 years. The subject is not always covered but the books are good starters for young readers to look for more information if they need it. Recommended.
