The Bat

A book by Elise Gravel.

Elise Gravel

Hilarious illustrated nonfiction about bats perfect for beginning readers. Conversational text and silly illustrations will have you up all night reading about the only flying mammal on Earth!

Fast bat facts:
Distinctive trait: The only flying mammal
Diet: Insects, fruit and even animal blood
Special talent: Sleeping upside down

The Batcovers habitat (bats live everywhere except Antarctica!), species (there are over 1,200 kinds of bats), echolocation, hibernation (bats hibernate just like bears!), conservation (don't disturb a sleeping bat!) and much more. Althoughsilly and off-the-wall,The Batcontains factual information that will both amuse and teach at the same time. (From Tundra Books)
