Editorial Reviews

"The Level 2 reader uses brief chapters, short sentences, easy words, and a bit of repetition to strengthen beginning readers' skills. Braun's illustrations focus on the branch the new friends share, a soft blue sky and deep green in the trees highlighting the fact that the animals are nocturnal."—Kirkus Reviews

"This visually appealing new beginning reader series is filled with animal facts." —School Library Journal

"Comical attempts at playing games (Sloth falls asleep during hide-and-seek), two instances of danger and heroics, and a gentle lesson in apologies comprise an engaging narrative.... Any budding reader will enjoy reading about Bat and Sloth." —Booklist
