What is Batmouse about?
Pip the mouse is fascinated by a bat flying above his home. Soon he decides that, when he grows up, he will become a bat too. He makes cardboard wings, practises flying and even tries sleeping upside down, but being a bat is much trickier than he expected. When Pip meets a real bat, he discovers a kind new friend who helps him find his way home. But Pip’s imagination is already racing towards his next idea: becoming a mole!
