Reach for this book when your child expresses curiosity about the world that wakes up while they sleep, or if they have developed a new fear of the dark.

Through the eyes of a mother pipistrelle bat, children experience the wonder of echolocation and the thrill of flight. The story concludes with a warm, maternal reunion as the bat returns to her roost to care for her baby, providing a sense of security and routine. It is a perfect choice for ages 4 to 8, blending factual science with a poetic tone that validates a child's sense of wonder while soothing nighttime anxieties.
