Celebrating BATS! From Fiction to Food
About 40 kids enjoyed a fun-filled (and tasty) event at our nature center last Saturday, when local childrens’ books author and illustrator Janell Cannon teamed up with Chef Amanda of the Good Food Factory kids’ TV cooking show to present stories and food about bats and their important role in pollination. Janell did a reading and powerpoint presentation of her famous book Stellaluna, and Chef Amanda helped the kids prepare an easy and healthy snack of foods pollinated by bats. For more information on Janell’s books and the Good Food Factory (which teaches kids how to cook and bake healthy foods).
