Bats Puppets with "Zipping, Zapping, Zooming Bats"
Children's Book
"Bats sleep all day, then
zip and zoom through the darknes as they hunt. But bats won't
hurt you -- they hunt at night because that's when their favorite
insects are easiest to catch. A little brown bat can eat half
its weight in insects every night. That's a lot of mosquitoes!
After learning all about bats you're sure to want them around
-- so we've include plans for building a bat house."
Ann Earle wrote this
Stage 2 "Let's Read and Find out Science" book
about bats. She explains how they use a special sound to hunt
for insects at night. Information is provided on the parts of
the bat and how bats are helpful to us by eating insects that
eat crops. Several different bats are described and plans for
a bat house are given.. Illustrated by Henry Cole.
"Stage
1 books explain simple and easily
observable science concepts for preschool- and kindergarten-age
children. Stage 2 books explore more challenging concepts for
children in the primary grades and include hands-on activities
that children can do themselves."
