Macri, Thomas, The Story of the
X-Men. Pgs. 32. Marvel, 2013. $3.99. EARLY READER.
Meet the X-Men. Not only are they
different, they’re mutants with powers. Mutants are looked at highly by the
regular humans around them, so they attend a special school run by Professor
Xavier to learn to control their powers, stop the bad guys, and fit in. There
are others who would disagree with the professor, however. Meet Magneto and his
gang and why they oppose Xavier as well as the other X-Men.
A fun, easy reader for fans of
the X-Men. The text is simple and perfect for emerging readers. The pictures
are engaging and make it easy to recognize the different mutants. Young readers
or ELL students who enjoy superheroes will like reading this book.
