Godzilla Discovers America (book)

Post by Creature22 »

Was reading the review on the site about this book. Looks pretty.. er... interesting to say the least. What I noticed in the review is that there are appearances of Ghidorah, Ultraman and a little Godzilla... anyone have any scans of any of the book's pictures with these characters? I've seen a few with Godzilla but aside from that, not much. :-|

I don't remember Ghidorah or Ultraman appearing, but I read this book around fifth grade, so.
I used to be a lot more optimistic and outgoing, believe it or not. I used to actually be passionate about this stuff.

Ah. I've only read a review and seen some pictures. I don't want the book enough to buy it though so I'm hoping someone else has it to clarify.

My local library used to have it. For a kid's book it was pretty good, but anyone over thirteen or so is probably going to spend the entire time facepalming. But I thought it was pretty good for a kid's book.

Most of the focus is on Godzilla and the Scorpion creature, Kamacuras comes later, that's all I remember monster-wise.

That's Godzilla Invades America. A good childrens book regardless, and I still have my copy of it.

Godzilla Discovers America is an entirely different book. Never read it nor know what it is about, personally.

A few more pictures form the book can be found on this strange site.

Ooops.

Sorry dude. Can't blame me though, I got 2 of 3 words right.
