Brian Lies has created an adorable series about bats and their nocturnal adventures.
Bats at the Beach tells the story of a night at the beach with bats in rhyme. They have picnics, swim, build sand castles, moon bathe, and much more. The illustrations are beautifully done and surprisingly not scary for Ivy. (Well...she is not as fond of bugmallows. She had her first s'more and was quite worried I would put bugs in it!) We got from the library tonight
Bats at the Library. She instantly recognized the catchy rhymes and adorable bat illustrations. I appreciated the pictural references of bats in famous stories. We are most excited to read Brian's latest -
Bats at Bat!
Quick, call out! Tell all you can reach:
the night is just perfect for bats at the beach!
So pack your buckets, banjoes, and blankets - don't forget the moon-tan lotion - and wing with this
bouncy of fuzzy bats to where foamy sea and soft sand meet.
(Although Ivy is only two, I pointed out the alliteration. She just said, "Ohhh.")
