Description
Little Brown Bat has broken his wing. But fear not, little guy! Thanks to a friendly human, Little Brown Bat gets to recover at an animal rehabilitation center. While he's resting he meets bat cousins from around the world. Giant fruit bats from Australia, insect-eating bats from the American Southwest, and even South America's vampire bat! All these new friends help Little Brown Bat understand why it's great to be batty.
Did you know that fruit bats help replant forests? That bat saliva has been used to make life-saving medicine? How about that a single bat can eat thousands of mosquitoes in one night? Bats aren't scary, they're spectacular! Along with Little Brown Bat, learn what makes these flying mammals so special.
