Editorial : From School Library Journal Kindergarten-Grade 2—On a chilly fall day, a tree bat wonders where to spend the winter. Should she stay in the forest or go? Seeking advice, she chats with a squirrel, deer, rabbit, chipmunk, mouse, wild turkey, and sparrow, and they each take a turn explaining how they spend the winter and warn the bat of possible dangers should she decide to stay. Gerber's style reflects her prior experience in writing science and reading textbooks; her word choices read like a basal text. Dialogues between the bat and the animals follow a similar pattern, and after a while become monotonous. Wald's realistic painterly illustrations nicely establish the seasonal forest setting. Fact-based activities that delve into bat adaptations and life cycles are appended. An online link leads to more cross-curricular connections. This story explores a lot of ground, from seasons to migration and to animal habits. For other informational picture books with more of an emphasis on

Red bats are the only bat species that can hibernate or migrate. Should this solitary little bat stay or should she go? That s the question the little red bat ponders as the leaves fall and the nights get colder! Some animals, such as the squirrel, tell her to stay. But what about the dangerous creatures that hunt red bats in winter? The sparrow and others urge her to go. But where? Carole Gerber takes young readers on an educational journey through one bat's seasonal dilemma in Little Red Bat. Imaginative illustrations by Christina Wald give little red bat charm and personality, and children will be waiting and wondering what will happen next. Will the little red bat stay put or migrate south for safety and warmth? The For Creative Minds educational section includes: Match the Bat Adaptation; Bat Fun Facts; How Animals Deal with Seasonal Changes; Red Bats and Seasonal Change; Bat Life Cycle Sequencing Activity.

As in the other books from David Busch, the glossary is well done, and even for those who think that they understand the terminology, there may be some interesting terms that are clarified. We all love it.. A mystery.
Matt Rhodes is in the closet and wants to come out but he hasn't found anyone special enough. Surving on the land with strategy and forethought.
