Strong Man: The Story of Charles Atlas

CRITICS HAVE SAID

Both the humor of the illustrations and the accretion of cool Atlas facts … keep things light without undercutting the author’s genuine admiration for the man.
Kirkus Reviews
A cheerful introduction to a cultural legend whose messages about self-respect and healthy choices are just as timely today as they were 50 years ago.
Booklist
This colorful book captures both the essence and mystique of an American icon.
School Library Journal
