4-6Batman & Robin Adventures series.
Illustrated by
Luciano Vecchio.
Batman and the Boy Wonder defeat familiar foes in these accessible books. Simple story lines--featuring comic book–style sound effects ("KAH-RACK!") within the text--combine with rapid pacing and playful banter for slight but entertaining reads. Snazzy colors and popular characters will likely appeal to reluctant readers. Discussion questions and writing prompts are appended. Glos. Review covers these Batman & Robin Adventures titles: Harley Quinn's Crazy Creeper Caper and Catwoman's Purrfect Plot.
