A Book From My Childhood That Influenced This Novel

Do you remember your favorite book from childhood?

On the Jetpack app, it give suggestions for blog post. One was about a favorite childhood book. I had several favorites. One of them was Mike Mulligan and His Steam Shovel. I also loved the Curious George books and a large Richard Scary book. Later I like Encyclopedia Brown & Beverly Cleary’s books. I decided that I had to write about one book that may have inspired this novel.

The book is a Golden shape book entitled BATMAN & ROBIN: From Alfred to Zowie.

This book was first publish in 1966 at the height of Batmania. Written by Ruthanna Thomas and illustrated by Tom Gill, this book captures the feel of the 1966 TV series.

Here are some scans of the book.
