The Bat
The first book in the remarkable, bestselling Harry Hole series from Jo Nesbo. "A stunning opening to the series." —Sunday Times "Jo Nesbo is my favorite thriller writer." —Michael Connelly Oslo detective Harry Hole is sent to Sydney, Australia, to assist the local police in their investigation of the brutal rape and murder of Inger Holter, a young, blonde Norwegian woman who was working in a restaurant. Initially sidelined as an outsider, Harry becomes central to the investigation when the police realize that Inger may be only the latest victim in a number of unsolved rape and murder cases around the country. Inger had a number of admirers, each with his own share of secrets, but there is no obvious suspect and the pattern of the other crimes seems impossible to crack. Then a circus performer is brutally murdered, followed by yet another young woman. And Harry is in a race against time to stop a highly intelligent killer who is bent on total destruction.

Take an amazing journey through the upside-down world of bats with Charlotte Milner's The Bat Book. Bright, bold, and beautiful illustrations accompany fascinating facts about these furry flying mammals and their importance to the world we live in. From the way they fly, to how they communicate with each other, how they hunt, and why they sleep upside-down, each of the world's 1,300 types of bat is unique and utterly fascinating. Bats are also incredibly important to the environment. As well as gobbling up pests, and spreading seeds through the forests, they also pollinate over 500 different species of plants throughout the world, including some of our favourite fruits such as mangoes and bananas. Following on from The Bee Book and The Sea Book, Charlotte Milner continues to highlight important ecological issues faced by our planet to children, this time focusing on the world's only flying mammals. The Bat Book is perfect to teach little animal-lovers all about these clever creatures who do so much for our planet. Discover how much they matter, why they are declining, and what we can do to help. This charming celebration of bats shows children just how extraordinary these animals are, and is a reminder that it is up to us to care for our planet and its creatures.
