(4) K-3 In Pat the bat's quest to become Superbat ("like the superheroes in his favorite comics"), his simple homemade outfit isn't enough, nor are his bat skills. Then forlorn Pat answers a mouse family's cry for help, highlighting the (overtly explained) superpower within him: courage. Carr's entertaining comics-style design and limited but vivid color palette elevate the book's otherwise trite message. Bat facts are appended.
