(4) 1-3 Tales of the Batcave series. Illustrated by Luciano Vecchio. This new early-chapter-book series explains how Batman and Robin acquired specific souvenirs housed in their secret headquarters. Despite some text design missteps, including particularly odd spacing and small font, these books capitalize on superhero fandom, using serviceable digital illustrations and the Batman franchise's characteristic humor and over-the-top plots. Each book includes discussion questions and writing prompts. Glos. Review covers the following Tales of the Batcave titles: The Clown Prince of Cards and Dino Death-Trap.
