Bony was a baby bat. Like all bats he was blind and scared of lights. At night when Bony went to sleep, he would often wake up with a start. “The street lights are still on, Mama!” he would call out anxiously. “Don’t worry, my child; we will go to a darker place,” comforted his mother. So Bony followed his mother into a dark dingy cave. “But what if I feel hungry? Where will I get insects at night?” asked Bony. “You can sense them by the sound you hear and catch them,” explained his mother. “Hang upside down and fall asleep,” said his mother. And the mother bat hugged the little bat warmly.
