My nephew liked this book just fine. It was a perfectly adequate introduction to Bruce Wayne as Batman, although I would venture to guess that a lot of little boys already know all about Batman by the time they get around to reading a book like this. My nephew is four, so he did get something out of this. He had no idea that Batman was Bruce Wayne. He said, "Oh, like Peter Parker is Spider-Man when he puts on his suit." I think my nephew and I really like our superhero books to be a little more action packed than this one was. It was fine, but it was no T. Rex Trouble, or Spider-Man Versus Hydro-Man.
