How can mankind stop the dreadful destruction caused by the Iron Man? He cannot be kept down. But when the Space-Bat-Angel-Dragon, a terrible monster from outer space, tries to lay waste to the planet, it is the Iron Man who helps to save the world… Fusing rich elements from myth, science-fiction and fantasy with a powerful ecological message, The Iron Man is a magnificent mini-epic of peace overcoming war. Written to be read aloud and to stimulate young imaginations, this masterful modern classic from former Poet Laureate Ted Hughes deserves a home in every classroom.
