"Holy anniversary, Batman! Every knight needs to have a squire, and every Sherlock Holmes must have a Watson. So it has been with Batman and Robin for seventy-five years. The Boy Wonder's spunk and color balance against the Caped Crusader's seriousness and gloom to create a perfect partnership, a Dynamic Duo. Though Batman has always needed a Robin, it hasn't always been the same Robin. Many different youths have taken up the name and costume, from jovial Dick Grayson to calculating Tim Drake to homicidal Damian Wayne. Each left his or her mark on the character, and today the Boy Wonder is almost as recognizable and beloved as the Dark Knight himself. Collecting stories from Dick Grayson, Jason Todd, Carrie Kelley, Tim Drake, Stephanie Brown, Damian Wayne and more, ROBIN THE BOY WONDER: A CELEBRATION OF 75 YEARS compiles the best moments from seven decades of the Dynamic Duo."--Page [4] of cover.

In this volume, you get a bunch of classic tales, including "Robin Dies at Dawn" (he doesn't really) and the "Death in the Family" issue where the Joker kills Jason Todd, the second Robin (he really does). The collection kind of loses steam as soon as Tim Drake comes onto the scene, which was a bit surprising because I always liked the character in the '90s. Maybe it's because his issues tend to deal with teenager life stuff and I'm no longer a teen.
It's defnitely worth reading if you like the character, and there's plenty of Dick Grayson here, but I would recommend some supplemental reading to get a better feel for the other Robins. For example, there's only single issues here from the larger story arcs [b:Batman: A Death in the Family|107032|Batman A Death in the Family|Jim Starlin|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1327940363s/107032.jpg|103163], [b:Batman: A Lonely Place of Dying|591355|Batman A Lonely Place of Dying|Marv Wolfman|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1327962006s/591355.jpg|578103], and [b:Batman and Son|440960|Batman and Son|Grant Morrison|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1328217465s/440960.jpg|2189612]. It's worth checking out these other books to get a better feel for Jason Todd, Tim Drake and Damian Wayne.
You should also check out the excellent [b:Batman and Robin: Batman Reborn|6672183|Batman and Robin Batman Reborn|Grant Morrison|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1391572618s/6672183.jpg|6867146], in which Dick Grayson is Batman and Damian Wayne is Robin. (
