Basil Dreams Big


'How do I steer? And how do I stop?


What if I lose all my UPNESS and…DROP?!'

Basil the bat doesn’t believe he can fly. No matter how hard he tries, he just can’t do it. But when a thundering storm threatens the safety of his beloved friend, Moth, will Basil find his wings and believe in the bat he CAN be?


A heart-warming story about the power of self-belief and dreaming big.


Waterstones says:


‘The creators of One Camel Called Doug return with another pitch-perfect rhyming tale, as a fearful bat gathers the courage to fly when his beloved friend finds themselves in peril.’
