Owl Bat Bat Owl

By Marie-Louise Fitzpatrick

A family of owls become neighbours with a family of bats ... just how will the night unfold?

"A stunning, unique picture book about friendship and family" - Carousel From award-winning author and illustrator, Marie-Louise Fitzpatrick, comes a stunning wordless picture book that celebrates family, friendship and the power of togetherness.

And the new neighbours (the owls up-top, the bats hanging below) can’t help but feel a little wary of one another. Owls just don’t mix with bats and bats don’t mix with owls. But babies are curious little creatures and this curiosity, and a wild, stormy night, might just bring these two families together…
