Barrington Stoke 4u2read: Going Batty Award-winning author by John Agard (author) and Michael Broad (illustrator)

A warm, charming and ever-so-slightly batty celebration of family love, inspiring teachers and the great characters who make all our lives more interesting.

Shona likes most creatures in the world but for some reason she’s terrified of bats, and so she’s a bit concerned when her new teacher announces they’re about to begin a bat project. But that’s nothing to how she feels when a colony of the pesky flappers turn up in her own attic! Luckily Miss Bates turns out to be a bat expert and she’s soon on the case.

Particularly suitable for readers aged 7+ with a reading age of 7.
