The Nature Kid's Guide to Bats: A Level 2 Reader for Curious Young Kids Who Love Bats!, (Paperback)

Swoosh! A pale shape drops from above like a silent missile. No warning. No sound. A ghost bat just had dinner - and the frog never saw it coming.<p></p><p>If your child thinks bats are just spooky Halloween decorations, this book is about to change everything. Did you know one bat can eat 1,000 mosquitoes in a single hour? That vampire bats share blood meals with hungry colony mates like best friends? That the bumblebee bat (the world's smallest bat) weighs less than a penny?</p><p></p><p>"The Nature Kid's Guide to Bats" takes curious kids ages 7-12 deep into the secret nighttime world of Earth's only truly flying mammal. How does echolocation fire 200 calls per second in total darkness? Why do fishing bats drag their claws across water to snatch fish? What makes flying foxes stretch their wings five feet wide? Your child will find out and won't be able to stop talking about it.</p><p></p><p>Short, punchy sentences and incredible surprises fill every page. From tiny bumblebee bats that fit on your fingertip, to ghost bats that hunt like silent dive-bombers, to spotted bats with ears nearly as long as their bodies, every bat in this book is stranger and more amazing than the last.</p><p></p><p><strong>A book for kids who stay up wondering what's flying around out there in the dark.</strong></p><p></p><p>Over 1,400 kinds of bats live on every continent except Antarctica. They plant forests, eat pests, and pollinate the fruit we love. Once your child discovers just how extraordinary they really are, they'll never hear a flutter in the night sky the same way again.</p><p></p><p><em>Thousands of young readers have explored the Nature Kids Guide series. The night shift is just getting started.</em></p>
