Great Golden Guide

The perfect little Golden Guide about bats. Cute drawings and lots of info, though like most GG books, it isn't a complete field guide. It fits in perfectly with the GG collection.

Nice Little Bat Primer

This is a great basic primer for kids or anyone looking for a simple overview of bats. It isn't really a field guide, just a survey. A much heavier scientific level of bat lore would be satisfied by Bats: Biology and Behaviour.

Excellent guide of the basics for anyone interested in bats!

There is a lot of good information packed in this little book! As well as covering different bat species, this book also explains how important bats are to the ecology of our earth. I highly recommend this book to everyone!
