Fans of Captain Underpants must be enjoying this new series for early primary grade readers.  Max is a superhero that is up against a dynamic look alike who uses his talents for all the wrong reasons.  While Max (Cat Crusader) is interested in saving donuts for the general public the Fake Cat Crusader wants them for selfish reasons.   Readers will enjoy the constant action and drama even as they appreciate the colorful and action-packed illustrations contained in this graphic novel.  The subtle differences in the color of clothing worn by the superheroes may confuse some readers, but they will enjoy a second read to confirm characters.

Add to public libraries where young reader series books are collected.  The first and now the third title in the series should also be ordered for the collection.  Consider as a gift book for grade 1-3 readers.
