My bat fiction story
Once there was a bat named Lacy and she had a sister named Jayden H. and they went to Bat-mazing Elementry School. There teacher Mrs. Bataski was teaching them how to fly and Lacy was swooping and there was a tree, and she scraped her wing somehow, and she fractured it and she had to get a cast.When Lacy and Jayden's mom saw it she was so sad she stared sobbing.That night, Lacy wished her wing would be all better. The next morning, her cast was off and she had a very good wing again.

What Bats Look Like
Ears: Bats have very good hearing.For insect and fish eaters,the big ears help with echolocation.
Nose: The sense of smell is well developed in most bats.It is used to find and identify certain foods and to recognize roost mates and young.
Fur on their body: You can tell a bat is a mammal because it has fur or hair on its body. The fur protects the bat because different colors and designs can serve as camouflage and they can hide from danger.
