Strong Man: The Story of Charles Atlas

To the one star reviewers saying this is an "inaccurate biography" or that it doesn't have all the official Atlas training methods...are you serious? You really have to be a special kind of stupid to see this cover and think it's anything other than a children's book. If you're after a cool little story for kids with some nice suggestions to eat right and exercise, this is a great book.

Good storytelling about an interesting character.Interesting story, well written, for children between five and eight years of age.

Great book poor shipping and packaging came in bent. Was for a friends baby shower

Charles Atlas' life was a very inspiring one. And here you have it written for children. The paintings ilustrating the text are kind of funny, which I like. The text even includes quotes from Atlas and gives only the necessary information. It includes 4 exercises for children to perform and encourages them to eat right and sleep well. I as an adult enjoyed it. I am sure my nephew will love it! Congratulations to Meghan McCarthy on this fine book.

Not quite factual on EVERY point in Charles' life, but an entertaining book and good introduction to him for kids, so I give it a thumbs up!

don't worry the dude isn't pink on the front cover

This book is pretty dreadful. There's a fair amount of body shaming, and the story does not appear to be truthful, though it is presented as if it were. I received it free from a book club, and I dislike it so much that I'll probably toss it, even though it's a hard cover book. Even at the price of $0, I just can't stand this book

I purchased a copy for my grandson. I am sure that he will like it and it is a great influence.
