I like the part when the iron man won and the space angel bat sang a lullaby.
I would reccomend because I think that if anyone likes to be a bit cheeky, they will like the iron man because that is what his character is like. I also really liked the names of the characters because they were unique names.
the little boy was amazing
Iron man got trapped
I really enjoyed reading the Iron Man. I particularly liked the part where the Iron Man had to get to a different country and fight a giant beast in a battle.
Brill. Class book
Good book to read
I enjoyed this so much and I love the way in which a once feared Iron Man and an annoyance to the public became their saving grace against the space bat angel. I love how the book changes perceptions of the key characters throughout especially the space bat angel. By the end of the boy you start to feel sorry for the creature.
I liked the illustrations- they were nice in their simplicity. I really liked the story and it felt like something that I'd write.
I would recommend this book.
The main character. Iron man. I
I really liked this book. We read it at school but I wanted to read it again. My favourite character is the space bat angel dragon because he is gigantic. It said in the book that his eyes are as big as Switzerland. I would definitely recommend that other people read it.

I liked this book because he saved the world but nobody liked him until he did.
I would recommend this book to my friend's
This book was unique because it had a lot of characters that were all imaginary.
Starts superbly with a clanking iron giant toppling from a cliff a d lying smashed on the rocks below. Then his various parts get up and search for each other. Hughes has never writen more complyingly.
My favourite part was chapter 5 called the iron man’s challenge
Love it!
I absolutely love it so much I like the part when a family have a picnic and they run away because the Iron man was escaping

I liked learning the definitions of all the new descriptive words used in this book. It has helped my vocabulary.
Great book, some lovely vocab.
I liked this book as it kept me really interested to find out what would happen.
i thou ght this bok was good but there wasnt much going on and it was a very small book.
It was quite short but I loved the battle with the space bat angel dragon!
I enjoyed reading about an iron man changing his ways to help the people on the earth. I liked Hogarth's character, he seemed to be a very sensible and kind boy.
