Outstanding nature photography and thorough information combine to make this a perfect purchase for the most curious readers! Bats and butterflies are common subjects in classrooms. Butterflies are perennially popular (their exotic beauty and the interesting process of metamorphosis), and the mystery and lore surrounding bats fascinates many. These books focus on commonalities among species, as well as interesting differences among the wide range of species in each group. Bats also addresses the rumors and negative information about bats, by debunking myths and giving the real story (which is more fascinating than the fiction!). Websites and index give added information and help navigate.

In Bats, readers will discover the special abilities that these amazing animals have adapted to help them survive in their wild environment, what humans have trained them to do using their special skills and intelligence, and where their abilities are vastly superior to our own. Did you know that bats will fetch food for other bats in their colony when they are sick, or that the US military used 'bat bombs' during World War II? The book also looks at how we have used technology to recreate bats' abilities.
