This is exactly how I saw Godzilla when I was young, and I still see him that way today: a misunderstood being without a kindred spirit in the world. If any child wants to take an interest in Godzilla, this is the book to start with. Not only does it depict some of the greatest monsters of the movies, like Angilas, Gigan, Rodan, and Varan, but it also contains a powerful message that is conveyed in a way that all children should understand. Plus, you and your child can enjoy the book together with its stunning illustrations by one of the greatest Godzilla artists of all time-- Bob Eggleton. A definite must-have for fans and parents. Its companion companion book, Godzilla Likes to roar, should not be passed up, either.

Even if you're not a Godzilla fan, this book is adorable. All the monsters on Monster Island like to play together, but poor Godzilla is lonesome because the smaller monsters are afraid of him. So he swims away to make new friends, but everywhere he goes, people get upset and shoot missiles at him. Poor Godzilla! The story has a happy ending, though, which is important. After all, we all want Godzilla to be happy, don't we?

Me and my boys love this book! You can't go wrong with this one.

This was perfect for a Godzilla fan I know. An awesome mix of great art and childhood nostalgia, and the book was in good condition. So, no complaints here.

My boys love Godzilla, and this easy reader was perfect for a new reader. it helps when they like the subject matter.
Fun , easy book.
