The Beach Day
What's The Beach Day About
In the third book in the Bat, Cat & Rat series from New York Times bestsellers Ame Dyckman and Mark Teague, hijinks ensue when the roommates take a trip to the beach in three-and-a-half sweet and silly stories. When warm weather hits, Bat, Cat, and Rat decide to head to the beach. But bus ride mishaps, hungry seagulls, and a missing kite threaten to take the fun out of the trio’s seaside afternoon. In “Sweating,” a hot day inspires the roommates to hit the beach, until a missed bus stalls their plans. In “Snacking,” Bat wants to share his snacks with everyone–seagulls included. But the gulls might be a little too hungry! In “Flying,” when Rat’s kite goes missing, Bat puts his aerodynamic skills to good use to save the day. Bat, Cat, and Rat’s irresistible friendship and amusing antics are sure to have kids laughing along.

The Creatives Behind the Book
Ame Dyckman is short, loud, mischievous, and often dresses like her book characters. (SEE?!) She’s also the award-winning, internationally-translated author of the fantastically illustrated (THANKS, illustrators!) picture books BOY + BOT, TEA PARTY RULES, the New York Times bestselling WOLFIE THE BUNNY, HORRIBLE BEAR!, YOU DON’T WANT A UNICORN! (on sale February 14, 2017!), and more picture books and board books in the works! Ame lives in central New Jersey with her family, ridiculously big-eared cat, book collection, closet full of hair dye colors, and of course, the characters from her stories. (For reals! She’s currently building a homemade swimming pool for the protagonist of her upcoming series, MISUNDERSTOOD SHARK—mostly so she can have her bathtub back.) Follow Ame on Twitter (@AmeDyckman), where she posts picture book reviews, goofy poetry, and pretty much everything that pops into her (usually blue-haired, sometimes purple-haired, occasionally green-haired) head.
