It had a good story and message about how we as humans need to share the Earth with bats and help prevent them becoming extinct. ( ) This is not just a graphic novel. Science comics are full of interesting information, detailed illustrations, use of topic and more. In this book we meet a small brown bat that somehow ends up in an area where brown bats are not found. When he tries to eat insects flying around humans, he is swatted and ends up breaking a wing. The tour guide takes him to a vet who specializes and rescues bats. She sets his wing and puts him in a cages area. He is taken under the wing of Gray, a gray bat and meets the various other bats living there. Through these introductions we learn about habitats, food, family life, sizes, nesting, echolocation, homes etc. It is all done in a very interesting and entertaining way. There are some great diagrams and illustrations to add to the story. We learn about the efforts of people to repopulate the bat world by building bat houses and having insecticide free farms. This book can be used by all ages to learn about bats and how to protect them and in turn how to protect the planet. It should be in all libraries, school and public. A great resource. I received a copy of this book from the publisher via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. A small little bat has been injured by people who thought the bat was going to harm them and he is taken to an animal clinic. While he is at the clinic the bat learns about varies other bats in the wild on earth. He learns about there nutrition and the kind of activities they engage in. This is a great book for children to learn more about bats although the story is fiction it does include many facts and various information over bats. This would be a great book to have in the classroom in regards to Science or Language Arts. This entry in the Science Comics series introduces readers to the mysterious and fascinating world of bats. Little Brown Bat is lost in the desert. He comes upon a group on a nighttime hike, viewing nectar bats. But when Little Brown tries to grab a few insects, the group flail and grab at him, damaging his wing. The ranger takes him to a wild animal hospital where he's cared for and transferred to a cage with lots of other bats who are being rehabilitated or cannot be released. As Little Brown slowly makes friends with the other bats, he learns all about different kinds of bats, what they eat and where they live, and the challenges that face them in the wild. As each bat tells their story, Little Brown (and the reader) learn about the many dangers that face bats and how we can help them survive - and thrive - in the wild. An added dimension to the story is the dialogue between the vet, Rebecca, and Sarah, the teen from the hiking group. At first she seems indifferent, playing on her phone while her parents ooh and aah over the night-time creatures, but it's Sarah who tries to calm her parents down and gets involved after they inadvertently injure the bat. Sarah has several conversations with Rebecca about how she got involved in caring for bats and works with Rebecca and the wildlife group from taking Little Brown in to finally releasing him back to the wild. This is Koch's first book (she also has a second Science Comic - Plagues - out from First Second at this point) but I'm sure I've seen her work elsewhere. Her faces are very distinctive, with slightly bent and discolored noses, which, it turns out, make great bat faces! She draws vibrantly and lovingly the weird, wonderful world of bats with all their unique attributes and habitats. I did find some confusion in all the pictures being flipped, showing the bats upright (instead of upside-down) but I can understand why it was done that way. Verdict: There's enough of a story to attract readers who like narratives but this is primarily expository prose about bats. Readers who enjoy learning about animals and their rehabilitation will grab this one. Even kids who are nervous around bats may be talked around to enjoying this one - and maybe learning a little about these strange but wonderful creatures.
