[ 책 소개 ]
* A Bank Street College Best Children's Book of the Year
* Texas Library Association 2X2 Reading List
이 책은 박쥐의 생태와 습성에 대하여 세밀하고 아름다운 사실화 그림을 이용해서 흥미진진하게 보여줍니다. 어둠이 내리면 잠에서 깨어나는 박쥐는 먹이를 찾기 위해 어두운 하늘로 날아 오릅니다. 박쥐의 넓은 날개는 팔과 길다란 손가락, 그리고 손가락 사이의 얇은 피부로 이루어져 있습니다. 그리고 발가락은 갈퀴 모양으로 되어 있어서 거꾸로 매달려 있기가 쉽습니다. 어둠 속에서 박쥐는 눈보다는 소리를 이용해서 방향을 잡고 사물을 인식합니다. 사람 귀에는 들리지 않지만 햄머를 내리치는 소리보다도 더 큰 초음파 소리를 낸 후 소리가 부딪혀 반사되어 오는 것을 감지해 냅니다. 대부분의 박쥐는 하루밤에 수십마리의 벌레들을 잡아 먹습니다만, 과일, 물고기, 개구리, 피 등을 먹이로 하는 박쥐도 있습니다. 밤이 지나고 여명이 밝아오면, 박쥐는 은신처로 돌아와서 기다리고 있는 새까에게 젖을 먹입니다. 그리고 깊은 잠에 빠져듭니다. 박쥐는 밤을 좋아하는 야행성 동물입니다.

Book Description
Night has fallen, and Bat awakens to find her evening meal. Follow her as she swoops into the shadows, shouting and flying, the echoes of her voice creating a sound picture of the world around her. When morning light creeps into the sky, Bat returns to the roost to feed her baby . . . and to rest until nighttime comes again. Bat loves the night!
Publishers Weekly
Bat Loves the Night by Nicola Davies, illus. by Sarah Fox-Davies, follows the pipstrelle bats' nocturnal wanderings. Dusky watercolor-and-pencil illustrations add enigmatic beauty; bat facts appear in a different typeface and illuminate the narrative. Pencil sketches on the endpapers label different kinds of bats with their common and scientific names.
School Library Journal
A charming and informative story about a pipistrelle bat. With Fox-Davies's delicately detailed illustrations, the world of this tiny creature is truly brought to life. While the large-print story unfolds as the bat awakens and flies out into the night, the author also includes some scientific tidbits that appear in smaller type. Davies offers vivid descriptions of the animal's flight, its navigational skills, and the hunt for food. She explains how a bat's senses of hearing and smell are most important to its survival and how it cares for its young. This beautiful and fact-filled selection is distinguished by excellent writing and art.
Kirkus Reviews
Bat (a pipistrelle) wakes up, flies out into the night to eat, and returns home to feed her young. The narrative, in large type, gives much of the information about bats in a voice that can work as a read-aloud ("Gliding and fluttering back and forth, she shouts her torch of sound among the trees, listening for her supper"), while smaller type on some pages elaborates ("Using sound to find your way like this is called echolocation"). The watercolor-and-pencil illustrations, in browns and blues, hint of night, without being too dark. Close-up views of plants and animals show detail, while wider sweeping landscapes give context and a sense of space. The details of Bat's fur and face do justice to this mammal, which many young kids may still think of as "gross." This is useful as a very first introduction to bats, but readers will need to go farther to answer some questions (like what kinds of bats do eat "fruit, fish, frogs, even blood!"). And while there is an index of 15 terms, there is no bibliography. Nevertheless, this is a beautifully designed and thoughtfully executed informational storybook. |
