A group of bats join forces to prevent their home from going up in flames during the Great Fire of London (1666). It is on historic record that St. Botolph's, Aldersgate was one of the few important buildings left standing after this major disaster, which destroyed over thirteen hundred dwellings and other buildings in the city, including St. Paul's Cathedral. This story imaginatively tells what might have happened when the bats of London, who were despised and suspected of spreading diseases, came together, cooperated, and saved the day. Readers will love getting batty with these interesting characters, including Bela, a Count Dracula figure!
