Little Brown Bats

By Joyce L. Markovics

Crisp leaves rustle on trees in fall. Furry little brown bats dart and circle around the entrance to a cave before flying inside. Using their sharp curved claws, they grip the cave's rocky ceiling and hang upside-down in groups. The tiny bats will spend all winter here, hibernating. In this dramatic and colorful book, beginning readers will learn all about where little brown bats go in winter and the amazing ways they survive--including not eating for several months. Each 24-page book features controlled text with age-appropriate vocabulary and simple sentence construction. The lively text, colorful design, and exquisite photos are sure to delight and engage emergent readers.
