Wonder Woman: The True Amazon by Jill Thompson

4.0

This is one of my favorite illustrated origin stories of Diana, ever. Instead of being the heroic beauty we all know and love, this shows us a younger, more honest version of Diana, as the only child on the island of Themyscira. I think this is a great book for introducing children to Wonder Woman's origin story (separate from the movie!) and showing that all actions have consequences, especially actions of selfishness and greed. We should all be encouraged to be more compassionate, and I can't think of a better way than through showing that the most compassionate and altruistic woman many of us know had to learn how to be a better version of herself, just like any of us.
