1: Interesting presentation of accurate information.
Bats:Creatures of the Night, is an excellent book which presents very accurate information in an entertaining manner. It also adds some good words, such as "creature", to your child's reading vocabulary. The book points out that bats are not to be feared as they are not dangerous as described by myth; however, the book fails to warn children that bats do carry disease and downed bats should never be picked up. Although some downed bats are fallen young, others may be sick with Rabies. Teachers/Parents: The danger myths about bats is a good introduction to the topic of myths in general. TLC, M.S. Biology
