Thor : the making of a god / written by Emma Adams ; illustrated by Sam Caldwell.
Most people know Thor for being the super strong God of Thunder who could control lightning and who rode around on a magical chariot pulled by goats. But once upon a time, Thor was just a little boy. Sure, he was the son of an almighty god, and he was a ferocious warrior, but in lots of ways he was just like you. He liked late-night snacks and playing games, and he had a really annoying friend, Loki. But he grew up, he grew stronger, he found a hammer, and he had all sorts of adventures. This is his story. Packed with facts from Norse mythology and comic-like illustrations, this is a humorous and informative "biography" of the God of Thunder, perfect for young and emerging readers.
