i love that book. It was awesome

very cool . recommended for kids would love to read again as as as as as as as as sit is . . . .

Everyone should read this book because it teaches you anything about Batman that you want to know. It also has descriptive, fun, and precise illustrations that adds on to Batman's biography.

really good book. i love every single bit of it. i rate this book 5/5 stars. rated for eveyone. noone should not like this book.

This short chapter book is the backstory or Batman. It tells all about why Batman came to be, how he trained and his inspiration. Other chapters include villains Batman faces, other heroes inspired by Batman following in his footprints, and Batman's various apprentices (nicknamed Robin). This book didn't have a plot, but was more a guidebook. Although it wasn't in the form of a "regular" comic book, there were many pictures, and captions below. I would recommend it to elementary students. It would be great for kids who want to know more about Batman, or an entertainment for those who would like more details. I rate this book 4 out of 5 stars.

I like this book because it tells about the history of batman. It is really fun to know his history. I think batman is a cool hero. He is my bros favorite hero

THis book gives good information on Batman and his history. In the story it takes us through Batman's life. From when his parents were murdered to his partner Robin. I liked the way it gave me so much information on the gadgets he uses and criminals he fights. Like his batarang and the Joker.
