My oldest was obsessed with bats, so I ran with the idea of they transforming into the those nocturnal creatures. I'm also always trying to get them to get along, so I added some of that aspect to the story. Cooperation and conservation equal an awesome adventure 2. What is the coolest fact about bat's you discovered from writing? Bats don't hang on when they sleep up-side-down. In fact, there is a tendon that gets pulled from their weight which clamps their toes around the wood or stone. That way, they don't have to waste energy while they dangle there. 3. Why should a parent purchase this book? I'm a mom, so understand what it's like to try and find good literature for my kids. My goal with this book was to appeal to the creative and inquisitive side of a child as well as provide them with real life situations. Will learns he is moving from his beloved farm to the city which is far away from his grandpa. It is through helping the bat family with their struggle that Will learns how to deal with his own struggle as a boy. It's a way to address hard topics without sounding too preachy.
