Karen Taschek's thoughtful and engaging exploration introduces young readers to the complicated and fascinating world of bats, both in their natural habitats and in the human imagination. Containing a wide range of bat-related topics, from their relationships with ecosystems to why you shouldn't be afraid of vampires, \u003ci\u003eHanging with Bats\u003c\/i\u003e addresses echolocation, vocalization, migration patterns, and breeding habits with enthusiasm. Taschek also includes information on what to do if a bat gets in your house, building bat houses, and how to imitate bat talk.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Karen Taschek\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of New Mexico Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/16\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 104\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.59lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.14h x 8.24w x 0.64d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780826344038\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eVoice of Youth Advocates\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2009 - Recommended - Hard To Beat\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eHornbook Guide to Children\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2009 pg. 152 - Recommended, Satisfactory\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eTaschek, Karen:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Karen Taschek is the author of fourteen young adult books on horses, including \u003ci\u003eHorse of Seven Moons\u003c\/i\u003e, the prequel to \u003ci\u003eThe Risen Horse\u003c\/i\u003e.
