Many people find bats to be scary, but a world without bats is much scarier. This title from our Nature's (Secret) Superheroes series delves into the powerful effect bats have on their environment. From controlling insect populations to preventing the spread of diseases, learn how these underappreciated and often misunderstood environmental superheroes work to keep their ecosystems going strong. Did you know:

- Bats are more closely related to humans than they are to rodents

The Nature's (Secret) Superheroes series—covering bats, native bees, beavers, elephants, freshwater mussels, and vultures—follows a fun superhero theme, featuring each animal’s origin story, how it saves the day, and its nemeses. Each book also includes activities that allow readers to gain hands-on knowledge about these animals.
