About The Bat and the Night
The Bat and the Night is a gentle picture book for children ages 3–9 that combines simple drawing prompts with soft reflections on emotions, imagination, and self-expression.
Through a quiet journey in the night, young readers are invited to explore feelings, fears, comfort, and curiosity in a playful and accessible way.
Children do not draw on the Kindle: they use their own paper while following the prompts, making the book ideal for home use, preschool, early elementary classrooms, calm-down corners, and SEL activities.
With its minimal text and open-ended creative tasks, The Bat and the Night supports emotional awareness, symbolic thinking, and personal storytelling.
The Kindle edition is free to download until Tuesday, December 2.
Perfect for early learning, homeschool routines, and gentle creative warm-ups.
