Omschrijving

The first book in the Schneider Award Honor-winning young middle grade series starring an unforgettable young boy on the autism spectrum.

For Bixby Alexander Tam (nicknamed Bat), life tends to be full of surprises—some of them good, some not so good. Today, though, is a good-surprise day. Bat’s mom, a veterinarian, has brought home a baby skunk, which she needs to take care of until she can hand him over to a wild-animal shelter.

But the minute Bat meets the kit, he knows they belong together. And he’s got one month to show his mom that a baby skunk might just make a pretty terrific pet.

"This sweet and thoughtful novel chronicles Bat’s experiences and challenges at school with friends and teachers and at home with his sister and divorced parents. Approachable for younger or reluctant readers while still delivering a powerful and thoughtful story" (from the review by Brightly, which named A Boy Called Bat a best book of the year).

Elana K. Arnold's Bat series is a proven winner in the home and classroom—kids love these short illustrated young middle grade books.

What happens when a boy who sees the world differently finds a friend who needs him more than anything?

A Neurodivergent Main Character: Meet Bat, a boy on the autism spectrum who loves animals, facts, and his quiet routine—until a tiny skunk kit turns his world upside down. Adorable Animal Rescue: When Bat’s veterinarian mom brings home an orphaned baby skunk, Bat knows he has to find a way to care for him and convince his family to let him stay. Navigating Family and Friendship: From figuring out life with his divorced parents and older sister, Janie, to making a new friend at school, Bat’s journey is full of heart. A Great Classroom Read: With short chapters, charming illustrations, and themes of empathy and responsibility, this book is an ideal choice for discussions at home or in the classroom.
