Bat Wings in the Night Sky - Realistic Bat Costume Wings for Halloween & Cosplay - Perfect for Spooky Parties, Gothic Events & Theatrical Performances

Did you know that studying bats can teach also teach us about humans? Those with poor sight are often labeled "blind as a bat" but the simple fact is that these small animals do have eyes and several species (like the flying foxes) see well, thank you very much. So what do they do when their echolocation "sees" one thing and their eyes tell them something different? What role does color play?This book is filled with neat information, scientific questions, and gorgeous color photographs that kids will love. The book is divided into seven chapters on everything from the basic lure of bats, their auditory "vision" and what they eat to where they live, how they look and how to conserve them.The rich photographs show all kinds of fruit, insect-eating and vampire bats, feeding and in their roosts all over the world.The book closes with four brief sections on bat classifications, anatomy, scientific and common names, and other books and technical publications about bats.The type is fairly large, and the text is both scientific easy enough for independent readers aged 10 and up.For kids who like nonfiction or nature this book is a must. And it will teach them to love these important animals, too long maligned. Alyssa A. Lappen
