Meet Addie, the star of this delightful Halloween read-aloud picture book that's about bats—but it's not scary!
Addie was born to be a STAR, and Addie and her best friends, Ben and Jude, are three peas in a pod. Together, they learn to perform spellbinding moves in the air, forming a trio called Addie and the Acrobats! They love the crowds, the cheers, and most of all the attention!
But one night after a spectacular show, Addie receives an invitation to join the Big Bat Circus. When she finds out the invitation is only for her, she'll have to choose: fame or friendships? This delightful social-emotional learning picture book is a story that both entertains and encourages conversation. Smart and off-beat with delightful illustrations, readers will fall in love with Addie.
