From the publisher

Dive into Norse mythology and learn how Thor became a strong, hammer-wielding god in this exciting new picture book in the Little Myths series. 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.
