Beware the Lizard by Nachie Castro-ADVISABLE

Castro, Nachie, Beware the Lizard. Marvel, 2012. PICTURE BOOK.

When an experiment goes wrong and Spiderman’s friend, Doc Connors, becomes the villainous monster, the Lizard. Not quite himself and not quite a hardened criminal, he needs Spiderman’s help to become himself again. Will Spiderman be able to save him?

A fun picture book as far as Spiderman books go. The story is well-done. The pictures are vivid and complement the text. Young children who like Spiderman, superheroes, and Marvel picture books will enjoy having this book read to them.

PRE-K, EL (K-3) - ADVISABLE.
