Batman Meet the Super Heroes
By Michael Teitelbaum
1. In this story Bruce Wayne aka Batman is at the museum when a statue of a dragon comes to life. He races home to change into his Batman costume and fights the dragon. The dragon is too strong for Batman by himself so he calls for his friend Superman to come help. Superman helps Batman fight the dragon but together they find out the dragon is dark magic and still too powerful. They have to ask their friend Wonder Women for help because she knows how to fight magic. With her help the three are able to defeat the evil dragon and save the city.
2. This book is an easy read and would be good for students in 1st or 2nd grade.
3. This book could be used to talk helping others. Batman had to ask for help from his friend when he could not save the city by himself.
4. Individual students who are having trouble-making friend may find this book helpful because it shows even super heroes need friends.
5. I think this is a good small group book because boys who don’t like reading may enjoy seeing their favorite heroes in a book.
6. I don’t believe this is a good classroom book because all the students may not enjoy hearing about super heroes. There is also not a big connection between this book and school subjects.
7. There are other books in the Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman series by the same author. Students may enjoy reading through this series.
8. This book does not have an audio version but there is a cartoon, movie, toys and websites for all three of these characters.

A very fun and enjoyable book that introduces the children to these great characters and gets them interested in reading.

For a beginning reader that is starting to want more than "See Spot Run", this book is most likely perfect. Honestly, I don't know. I don't have kids, I've just spent half my life, collecting all things Batman and this book was a random find at a Thrift Store.
I'm actually attempting to downsize my massive collection of nerdiness and figured that most of the kids books that I have could find a better home. So I'mma zip through some little kid stuff and starting weeding out what I can get rid of to make room for more important items.

Miss 4 thought it was okay but was confused by Batman's costume not being black.
Miss 4 and I like to explore different books and authors at the library, sometimes around particular topics or themes. We try to get different ones out every week or so; it's fun for both of us to have the variety and to look at a mix of new & favourite authors.

It's a kids book, yes, and the story is not complex, but it is FUN. Also, I read it to help me practice me Swedish, and it's certainly good for that.
Although "svans" is "tail" in English, so the dragon did not hit Batman with its swans.

My con (age 3.5) continues to ask for this one from the library again and again. It has three super heroes that he knows well and a dragon- what's not to like about that?! The story is simple and the illustrations are colorful.

Batman: Meet the Super Heroes By Michael Teitelbaum is about Batman teaming up with Superman and Wonder woman in order to save Gotham City from an evil magic dragon. This book is a transitional read because the vocabulary is more complex, dialogue is used, the sentences are longer and the story is filled with descriptive language. The story also has a problem and solution which is major component of transitional reading. The problem is a dragon takes over Gotham City, then the solution is when Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman save Gotham City.
This story was adorable, interesting and keep the reader wondering what was going to happen. I enjoy SuperHero books and think they would engage the students in literature.
This story could be used for and independent read or read a lout in 1st through 3rd grade. I would recommend this story to children that are interested in superheroes. The story could be used as an independent read during group time, reading time and for take home reading practice with parents. This story could be used as a read aloud during class time to help discuss language, decoding and comprehension strategies.

"Holy team-up, Batman!" A dragon statue comes to life at the Gotham City Museum and Batman can't stop it alone, requiring the help of not one, but TWO of his super friends: Superman and Wonder Woman. Of course, the heroes triumph with apparent ease (thanks to teamwork, kids! - wink,wink).
The whole thing is wrapped up in 32 pages. The plot is pretty basic & straightforward, and the sentences are short. The illustrations are BIG and colourful, perfect for the intended "beginner reader" audience.
Recommended for beginner readers and Goodreads members wanting to pad their stats.

This is a great book! It really engages young boys when learning to read. This book is level 2: read with help. The is an introductory page of the characters before the story begins which is great for discussing story elements. In this story Batman, Superman, and Wonder Women take on a dragon thats destroying Gothem City.

This book was a great and easy read. I loved it because there are so many little boys who want to be super heroes and have such great imaginations. This book can really bring out their crazy adventurous personalities. I think this book amongst other super hero books are worth buying and sticking in your reading corner.

My five-year-old son is a big Batman fan, so he picked this book out from the library last week.
For what this book is, it's a really fun read. My little boy could only read a few words by himself, so I helped him out with the rest. But even over a prolonged reading, I could see this book holding his attention.

In this story, Batman must fight a statue of a dragon which has come to life. He needs help, so he calls on his friends Superman and Wonderwoman. Together they defeat the dragon and it turns back into stone.
My son really enjoyed this!

Just read this to my kiddos. It took everything in my power to not make a crack about Superman hearing Batman's distress all the way in Gotham. I'm sorry, Wonder Woman, but you were infringing on the magic.

Classic good vs. evil. Teamwork message.
Logan says: 4 stars.

my kids are just learning to read, so this is fun for them, and I like that Wonder Woman saves everyone in the end, but...there is really no plot resolution at all.

Ian gives this one four stars...but Holy Cliffhangers, Batman....there's no story resolution! Why did this happen???!?

The boys started looking for these on outings to the bookstore, and we usually get one or two in each school book order.
