Chapter 7: Butterflies and Bats

While the students walked around the zoo looking at all the animals, everyone was having fun; even Theodore and Eleanor were enjoying their time looking at the animals. They just went to the ones that either interested them, or animals that they thought were naturally beautiful, like the butterfly exhibit.

Alvin and Brittany meanwhile were just happy that they got done with the assignment, and that they could look at whatever they wanted. They also took pictures while in different locations of the zoo. At one point, the two were walking by the reptile's exhibit, and Brittany wanted to get a picture by the chameleons. She walked over to where one of the lizards was, while Alvin took the picture. Once he was done, Brittany walked over to look at the picture. At first it was to see the lizard; he was green and blended in with the leaves, but the lizard still made it into the picture! After that, they left the reptile's exhibit, and moved on to the butterfly exhibit where they caught up with Theodore and Eleanor! Butterflies flew all around them. It was amazing!

Simon and Jeanette were also going to at some flying animals, but not butterflies; bats! Turns out it was a specific building for bats. At first, Jeanette was a little nervous about going in. She didn't know if they would be flying around them, or if the bats would be in enclosures. "It's okay if you want to go see something else, Jeanette. I don't mind," Simon said trying to reassure her. "No, I'll be fine. Let's just go inside!" Jeanette replied as she and Simon slowly walked into the building. Once they got in, it wasn't as bad as Jeanette had thought; there were enclosures with bats in them, but there were also a lot of posters and facts everywhere about bats. There were also different species of bats in the room, and not just ones that lived in California. There were also myths about bats, and what was actually true. Jeanette actually was having a good time watching these amazing animals, and she was also glad that Simon was with her to help comfort her if she felt uncomfortable.

"Simon, I'm really glad that we came here," Jeanette said facing Simon with a smile on her face. Simon turned to her and replied: "I'm glad that we could visit the bats too. I'm also happy that you're no longer nervous around bats." The two hugged each other, and then Simon asked: "Speaking of flying animals, do you want to go to the butterfly exhibit?" "Sure," Jeanette replied as they walked calmly out of the bat exhibit.

The two then headed for the butterfly exhibit where they were greeted by the rest of their siblings outside of the building. "Hi everyone, what are you all doing out here?" Simon asked. "We are going to lunch!" Theodore replied.
