Bats!: Biggest! Littlest!

(3) K-3 In this book, size comparison is an appropriate vehicle for information about bats. The selective facts are well chosen and their presentation is lively. From the large gray-headed flying fox to the tiny bumblebee bat, these flying rodents are described engagingly ("Big, leathery wings make a good raincoat"), and colorful, close-up photos enrich the text. A distribution map is appended. Reading list, websites. Glos.
