Description
Renowned artist, Kelly Stribling Sutherland, and university professor, KD Chapman, have teamed up to create a delightful early reader, Pat the Bat. The beautifully illustrated story is inspired by a project that Chapman and his young daughters worked on many years ago when they were just beginning to read. Building early vocabulary with simple sentence structure and intuitive rhymes will engage children as they read about Pat and his friends. Colorful artwork accompanies the story, guiding readers through the imaginary world of Pat the Bat.

Kent Chapman's enthusiasm for children's literature paralleled his experiences as a father, and "Pat the Bat" was a project that he and his two daughters, Claire and Meredith, worked on while they were young students at a Montessori school in Denton, Texas. Chapman has authored many scientific publications, but "Pat the Bat" was his first foray into children's books. For the last 25 years, Kent and his wife Kerrie have called Denton, Texas their home. The two are blessed to have many family members nearby in Texas, and some a bit farther away in Pennsylvania, Arizona, Kansas and Oklahoma.
