Bat Pat Vol. 3: Monsters in Distress (Paperback or Softback)

Bat Pat returns with another spooky (and silly!) adventure!

A trip to the beach gets interrupted when Mr. Trotter's pants are stolen by a Fishsquach during a fishing trip. The Fogville lighthouse turns into a beacon for a ghost pirate, returning to town looking for his long-lost buried treasure. And the entire town is awakened by a horrible wailing banshee that wants to rock and roll. Join Bat Pat, Rebecca, Martin, and Leo on their many adventures helping these monsters in distress!
