Bats at the Library by Brian Lies will delight any youngster who finds it difficult to sit still and be quiet while visiting a library. There's so many more ways to have fun in a building full of books. Lies' bats will show readers the possibilities! In addition to a wealth of books--the bats find a book about moths--there's shadow play with the overhead projector, photos with the copy machine, splashes in the water fountain, and pretending inside popup books! Brian Lies' fine art paintings are awash in joy. And the story is in rhyme, which adds a happy feeling of song. I can imagine any child who's read this book will look all around for a tiny bat that didn't make it out at dawn with the rest.
