YOUNGER FICTION
Humphrey, Anna

Megabat

(3) 1-3 Illustrated by Kass Reich. Lonely in a new town, Daniel Misumi meets an even lonelier talking fruit bat in this early chapter book. Together, boy and bat strategize its return to Borneo while also dodging a callous neighbor, forging new friendships, and bonding over Star Wars. Humphrey makes the story's various absurdities seem only natural, and the gently rounded graphite illustrations and welcoming, large-font format match the sweet tone.
